To those with Heartstrings,

I welcome you back for another time of encouragement, the Word of God and a challenge to stand firm in the matchless grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. 

Have you found God's Word opening up as never before? In my own personal life, I find each day a renewal of Living Water. No matter what the circumstances, I find God is always faithful and good.

I am going to just jot down a few things that have gotten my attention in a new and fresh way. Ask Holy Spirit to pour over you fresh oil from the throne. And lift up all concerns to the Lord. Old patterns of thinking need to be brought before the Throne of Grace. For He is Faithful and will sustain you with every step you take. You are a precious treasure in the eyes of the Lord.

I love what Psalm 25 says. Verses 1-5, "Unto You, O Lord, do I bring my life. ~ O my God, I trust, lean on, rely on, and am confident in You. Let me not be put to shame or [my hope in You] be disappointed; let not my enemies triumph over me. ~ Yes, let none who trust and wait hopefully and look for you be put to shame or be disappointed; let them be ashamed who forsake the right or deal treacherously without cause. ~ Show me Your ways, O Lord; teach me Your paths. ~ Guide me in Your truth and faithfulness and teach me, for You are the God of my salvation; for You [You only and altogether] do I wait [expectantly] all the day long."

As many are coming to Christ for salvation, lives are being changed, transformed! It is exciting to watch! Only by the move of God's Spirit would this be possible. The move of God is global! So, what is happening in your small world? How is this effecting you?

As I asked the Lord about His coming for His Bride, I felt a longing I have never felt. But, still waiting. Before the sun came up, I asked Him about this. He reminded me of how much He loves people and wants each one to be saved from separation from Him. Then, as an example, the Lord gently spoke to my heart about the great day of His Appearing. The Bride of Christ will be caught up to meet Him someday soon. 

The question I had to answer was, "what if one of my loved ones had still lived in unbelief? Would I be willing to wait for that one to come repentant to Jesus?" I was surprised by that because I really have prayed for their salvation as for many others. But somehow this stirred my heart in a deeper way. I understood. 

Lord, I bring my life to You. I will not be disappointed as Your Word says. I will continue to place my trust in You and hope for the salvation of my family and friends. You are moving. You are faithful and will teach me Your ways. I will continue to wait expectantly for You. I surrender my life to You, Jesus. 

There are so many other scriptures given to us to sustain us on our journey. I will leave you with this. From Psalm 28:7 and pray for you to search out the Love Letter Abba Father has given us. Ask the Holy Spirit to apply these Truths and only these to your life, daily.

"The Lord is my Strength and my [impenetrable] Shield; my heart trusts in, relies on, and confidently leans on Him, and I am helped; therefore, my heart greatly rejoices, and with my song will I praise Him."

My prayer for you today is that the precious Word of God will penetrate, fill and change you. That you will have a song in the troubled days as well as the easy ones. No matter how you feel, that Holy Spirit will comfort and help you with each step you take. That a song would rise in your heart because the enemy is conquered as he hears you lift praise and thanksgiving to the Lord God Almighty. 

Do not be troubled. "For in the day of trouble He will hide me in His Shelter; in the secret place of His tent will He hide me; He will set me high upon a rock." Psalm 27:5.

May you be blessed as you meet the challenges. May you be strong in the strength of the Lord. In the matchless name of Jesus Christ, our soon coming King. Amen

Abundance is...Courage found in Jesus
