February 7 Devotional

Dear Friends,

Thank you all for your presence in choir, orchestra and bells last night.  We got a LOT done and had fun too!  I appreciate your hard work and commitment to the worship arts ministry here.  I love partnering with you all in being conduits for the Holy Spirit!  Amen!  I pray you all will get some rest this weekend.  Take care of yourselves physically, emotionally and spiritually.  And always remember that Christ is there, waiting for you with open arms.  Peace and Love, Scott

Come To Me For Rest and refreshment.  The journey has been much for you, and you are bone-weary.  Do not be ashamed of your exhaustion.  Instead, see it as an opportunity for Me to take charge of your life.

Remember that I can fit everything into a pattern for good, including the things you wish were different.  Start with where you are at this point in time and space, accepting that this is where I intended you to be.  You will get through today one step, one moment, at a time.  Your main responsibility is to remain attentive to Me, letting Me guide you through the many choices along your pathway.

This sounds like an easy assignment, but it is not.  Your desire to live in My Presence goes against the grain of “the world, the flesh, and the devil.”  Much of your weariness results from your constant battle against these opponents.  However, you are on the path of My choosing, so do not give up!  Hope in Me, for you will again praise Me for the help of My Presence.

Romans 8:28 (AMP) 28We are assured and know that [God being a partner in their labor] all things work together and are [fitting into a plan] for good to and for those who love God and are called according to [His] design and purpose.

 Psalm 42:11 (NASB) 11Why are you in despair, O my soul?  And why have you become disturbed within me?  Hope in God, for I shall yet praise Him, The help of my countenance and my God.
