Just stay calm!

Today, my heart hurts....  My Haley bug is battling with very real anxieties and fears.  Fears that are destroying her precious spirit.  Fears that are zapping her energy and fears that as a mom, I want to carry for her! 

I can not imagine how God feels....  As I was pouring my heart out to God today for my precious Haley, I felt such an intense burning in my soul, that God also feels this same heart break.  That each day, He is flooded with cries from his children who need relief!  Oh, how His heart must ache for each and every one of us who hurt!  Never before have I understood how much God must truly care!  We are His children and every hurt we feel, He truly feels!!

Not sure what you need today, but know as a child of God, your Heavenly Father knows exactly what your hurts are, He knows exactly what you need, and I pray He brings you the sweetest peace ever!

I loved this paragraph in my Beth Moore study from last week:
          "I am hoping for us to grasp that no life is free of troubles, regardless of religion, race, or nation.  In fact, as Job said, every life is full of it.  When we trust our lives to the hand and pen of an unseen but ever-present God, He will write our lives into His story and ever last one of them will turn out to be a great read.  With a grand ending.  And not just in spite of those catasrophes.  Often because of them.  Dont just wait and see.  Live and see."

Here is a verse that Haley repeats to herself daily:
          "The LORD himself will fight for you. Just stay calm."  Exodus 14:14

The battle is not mine but yours dear Lord!  And I am trusting you for the victory!
