Welcome Heartstrings family

"Grace (spiritual blessing and favor) be to all of you and [heart] peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah). ~ I give thanks to my God for you always when I mention you in my prayers."  Philemon 1:3-4.

It seems that all around the world many are meeting challenges. Some fail to call on the name of the Lord, our only real hope. Yet, I know there are many turning to God and meeting these challenges victorious, for His glory and honor.

Whatever side of this journey you are on, my prayer is that you turn to the One Who made you and knows you intimately. For the day will come when we see Him face to face. I am learning to bow before His Mighty name now. Why wait?

Here are some encouraging words from God's Love letter. Take time to pause and ask the Holy Spirit to apply Truth to your heart. You will find the strength you need for any battle today or those to come. Simply believe. Trust in, rely on and adhere to the Lord of All.

Finding confidence is to turn completely to Jesus Christ. So, here are a few of the scriptures that have led me into peace over the last month. God hears when we cry for mercy. This is certain.

His Word speaks. Psalm 18:2-3 says, "The Lord is my Rock, my Fortress, and my Deliverer; my God, my keen and firm Strength in whom I will trust and take refuge, my Shield, and the Horn of my salvation, my High Tower. ~ I will call upon the Lord Who is to be praised; so shall I be saved from my enemies."

Nahum 1:7 says, "The Lord is good, a Strength and Stronghold in the day of trouble; He knows (recognizes, has knowledge of, and understands) those who take refuge and trust in Him."

Isaiah 26:4 says, "So trust in the Lord (commit yourself to Him, lean on Him, hope confidently in Him) forever; for the Lord God is an everlasting Rock [the Rock of Ages]."

Isaiah 12:2-3 says, "Behold, God my salvation! I will trust and not be afraid, for the Lord God is my strength and song; yes, He has become my salvation.~ Therefore with joy will you draw water from the wells of salvation."

Psalm 22:5 says, "They cried to You and were delivered; they trusted in, leaned on, and confidently relied on You, and were not ashamed or confounded or disappointed."

Psalm 56:4 says, "By [the help of] God I will praise His word; on God I lean, rely, and confidently put my trust: I will not fear. What can man, who is flesh, do to me?"

Jeremiah 17:7-8 says, "[Most] blessed is the man who believes in, trusts in, and relies on the Lord, and whose hope and confidence the Lord is. ~ For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters that spreads out its roots by the river; and it shall not see and fear when heat comes; but its leaf shall be green. It shall not be anxious and full of care in the year of drought, not shall it cease yielding fruit."

Romans 8:31 says, "What then shall we say to [all] this? If God is for us, who [can be] against us? [Who can be our foe, if God is on our side?"

Do you have an answer to this? Each one of these scriptures have spoken personally to me. I am learning and I have experienced relationship with Father God as never before. I am humbled to bring this to you today. And, pray you are hearing His Word speak to your own heart. He fills all our needs, in every situation. Rejoice!

The Lord bless you and keep you in the matchless name of Jesus Christ our soon coming King.

Abundance is...having confidence in the Lord
