Trust and Obey

Trust and Obey

There is no other way

To be happy in Jesus

But to Trust and Obey 

Amen…..

Thursday, March 17, St Patricks Day…..time for a Lenten Reflection.

Tonight as I offer Lenten reflection, let me clearly remind myself of the strength I take in to my entire being, as I humbly contemplate your manger and your cross. Lay it in my humble heart…. the wonder of your heroic surrender, so that I might cast off all pride and share in the cup of your tears. How can I know. How can I truly know your suffering. This was your divine love for me. Tonight I reflect in total silence and prayer. Amen my Father God.  AMEN

My Friday Devotional – posted Sunday , Nov 7th

Hear me, my loving father God……you are in me, and I am in You. I feel it. It is a mystery to me. You always are there to uphold me. But I fall short Lord Jesus. Your divine presence is deep in me even when I may feel lost. I have no human relationship that can take this place. I know that even people who are married cannot know all the thoughts and feelings of their spouse, but I know that you know everything about me. You even know my tomorrow. As your child, I know that my feelings of aloneness and are not so. They are a false belief.

In You Lord Jesus, I live and move and have my entire being. Being joined with You, makes every moment of my life meaningful. I humbly thank you now, for your presence and for making me alive and so very complete. Amen.  

Jesus, Thank You for my beautiful day……

Good Evening my Lord and my God, 

Thank you Jesus for a very fruitful day today with very productive work, I enjoyed beautiful early morning weather, and moist soil in which to make my contributions in the yards where I am working. The rain you provided was generous and so welcome. Thank you for your living waters. I made very good progress today. I am so grateful Father.

I want you to hear me tonight as I humbly confide in you for guidance. Jesus, help me to trust you with my decisions and my future. I want to lean on you with all my heart. My own understanding of my future may be less than perfect. I know you want your very best for me. I ask for your clear guidance in my life Lord. I submit myself to you because I know you will lovingly direct my path. I know your direction is always the best and your perfect way. Jesus hear my prayer tonight. In Christ Jesus, my Savior and my God. I give you my whole life. You are my life and I love you. Amen

My gracious Lord, I come to you this evening. My morning was interrupted and I missed communion with you. Thank you for your forever blessings on me today. Please now bless me as I go to slumber. Restore me as a I sleep. Talk with me now as I drift off.  May my dreaming be sweet. You are my safest place to be Father. You are my God of amazing Grace. I am forgiven by you, I am loved by you, and as I lay down to rest my weary head, I know you hold me safe. You know all my thoughts, my feelings and my deepest desires. You understand if I get tired and loose my focus like I did this day. You are my constant Father and you are with me all night – because on you I know I can depend. Thank you my Lord and my Savior God. I give you all that I am, and I hope to do better tomorrow.  Amen
