Run to Him!

“Life happens” I hear often when things go awry. 

Tragedies, illness, heartbreak, disappointments slam into our day, blindsiding us and leaving us wounded and bleeding. 

This is where we have a choice – to react or act. We can scurry around trying to fix things, right the wrong, find the solution, wring our hands in despair and become totally and completely exhausted and emotionally spent.

Or we can run!
Run to our Creator.

Run to our Sufficiency. 

Run to our Answer. 

Run to our Healer.

Ugly, painful, hurtful times will occur. Jesus, our Lover, Comforter and Protector stands by the throne of grace and mercy with arms outstretched . . .He runs to us as we run to Him! He wipes the tears from our eyes, whispers love and comforting words and fills our hearts with His peace.

Isaiah 26:3  You will keep Him in perfect peace, him that is steadfast, because he trust in you!

EMBRACE the "IS"

The Lord IS with me
He IS providing, this moment, what I need
He IS supplying safety, comfort, food, rest and beauty around me
He IS healing, strengthening, transforming my soul today
He IS leading me in the way I should go to glorify HIM

He IS my shield and protector today
He IS the answer to today’s fear – it is gone
He IS with me – in me and all around me
He IS aware of what I can’t see and already provides what is needed – because He loves me

He IS declaring me precious, loved, special – HIS!
He IS with me – past, present and future
He IS finished with my special place where I will be with Hi forever – the Lover of my soul!!!

Psalm 23
