June 23rd Devotional

Dear Friends,
I trust this finds you all well.  Today’s devotional is a gentle reminder of God’s presence in our lives so that we are not slaves to fear and worry.  I love the phrase that says God is looking for “persistence and not perfection” in our walk with Him.  It gives me hope along the journey with Christ that though I stumble and fall away at times, He is always there to pick me up and help me along the path of righteousness.  Thank you God!  Be blessed as you live each day in the shadow of our loving Father.  Peace and Love, Scott

Let My Love Stream Through You, washing away fear and distrust.  A trusting response includes Me in your thoughts as you consider strategies to deal with a situation.  My continual Presence is a promise, guaranteeing that you never have to face anything alone.  My children teethe on the truth that I am always with them, yet they stumble around in a stupor, unaware of My loving Presence all around them.  How that grieves Me!
When you walk through a day in trusting dependence on Me, My aching heart is soothed.  Gently bring your attention back to Me, whenever it wanders away.  I look for persistence-rather than perfection-in your walk with Me.

Psalm 52:8-9  8 But I am like an olive tree flourishing in the house of God; I trust in God’s unfailing love for ever and ever.  9I will praise you forever for what you have done; in your name I will hope, for your name is good. I will praise you in the presence of your saints.
Deuteronomy 31:6  6 Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.”

Ephesians 4:30  30And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, with whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. Daily Devotional from “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young
