January 19 Devotional

Posted on January 19, 2016 by drscott
Dear Beloved,
It’s so easy to let worry, fear and doubt cripple our joyous living.  The world perpetuates this, but God says “Don’t fret or worry.  Instead of worrying, pray.”  I say, keep on keeping on no matter what.  Give thanks for each day as it is indeed a gift. Today’s devotional says it all.  Peace and Love, Scott

Seek My Face, and you will find more than you ever dreamed possible.  Let Me displace worry at the center of your being.  I am like a supersaturated cloud, showering Peace into the pool of your mind.  My Nature is to bless.  Your nature is to receive with thanksgiving.  This is a true fit, designed before the foundation of the world.  Glorify Me by receiving My blessings gratefully.

I am the goal of all your searching.  When you seek Me, you find Me and are satisfied.  When lesser goals capture your attention, I fade into the background of your life.  I am still there, watching and waiting; but you function as if you were alone.  Actually, My Light shines on every situation you will ever face.  Live radiantly by expanding your focus to include Me in all your moments.  Let nothing dampen your search for Me.

Philippians 4:7 (MSG) 6-7Don’t fret or worry. Instead of worrying, pray. Let petitions and praises shape your worries into prayers, letting God know your concerns. Before you know it, a sense of God’s wholeness, everything coming together for good, will come and settle you down. It’s wonderful what happens when Christ displaces worry at the center of your life.

Psalm 27:8 8 My heart says of you, “Seek his face!” Your face, LORD, I will seek.

Jeremiah 29:13 13 You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.
