SMALL STRAWS IN A SOFT WIND by MARSHA BURNS:
If you feel lost or irrelevant you need to know that you are in transition. You are in the process of moving into a new season as things of the past months are fading away in preparation for what is ahead. Take a moment to reflect on what seemed to be failures to see what you can learn, and rejoice in your victories. Prepare to redirect and focus your attention on the next phase of existence.
Philippians 3:13-14 Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.
God is doing a new thing and repaying you for the pain of the past. Doug Addison
September 11, 2019. You are more than equipped to go into any situation without fear of any sort. It is not by your power, but by My Spirit within you that is able to conquer any obstacle. You say, “Oh God, if You only knew my past, You wouldn’t say those things.” That is precisely why I say that! Address your doubts and reservations head on. The Bible tells story after story of those who overcame adversity. Fervently press on.
Isaiah 43:2 (NASB) “When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they will not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be scorched, nor will the flame burn you.” Kevin Robinson
September 11, 2019. You have let fear come in the back door. It was not an obvious fear, but it has snuck in and is robbing you. You might say “I don’t have fear”. Let Me ask you. Do you procrastinate? Do you take a long time to make a decision? Do you want to be left alone all the time? That is fear! Fear will rob you of your fullest potential. Meet fear head on today by trusting Me.
Proverbs 29:25 (MSG) “The fear of human opinion disables; trusting in God protects you from that.” Robin Robinson Bohlin
