My Words Are Not Enough

Murder, Racism, Genocide, Persecution, Sexual Abuse, Pandemic, Natural Disasters, Identity, Personal Rights.  It all seems too much.  There is so much pain.  When people are suffering they do weird things and my words are not enough to combat the evils of this world, to speak the truth, to comfort, and heal.  Only God, only His words are truth.  Only His words bring healing comfort and all people need that. 

Quite frankly, I’m finding the world’s words noisy.  We live in a time that says opinions are true.  The way to happiness is to follow your heart and that being a biblical woman isn’t enough or valuable but rather harmful and to have a different worldview must mean you hate all people that don’t believe the same as you.

My heart feels broken as I see people do what’s right in their own eyes and bring disaster on their heads.   Yet, my heart is filled with compassion as I know that but for the grace of God, I was once in that place.  Jesus brings hope and wholeness and His Word is truth.  

I invite you to turn off the noise of the world for a few minutes and listen to the very Word of God…

My Words Are Not Enough But His Are

 

Psalm 119:77

 

Let your mercy come to me, that I may live; for your law is my delight.

 

 

Psalm 71:19

 

Your righteousness, O God, reaches the high heavens.  You who have done great things, O God, who is like you?

 

 

Psalm 32:9-10

 

Be not like a horse or a mule, without understanding, which must be curbed with bit and bridle, or it will not stay near you.  Many are the sorrows of the wicked, but steadfast love surrounds the one who trusts in the Lord.

 

 

1 Peter 1: 20&21

 

He was foreknown before the foundation of the world but was made manifest in the last times for the sake of you who through him are believers in God, who raised him from the dead and gave Him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God.

 

 

Psalm 37:24-26

 

Though he fall, he shall not be cast headlong, for the Lord upholds his hand.  I have been young, and now am old, yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken or his children begging for bread.  He is ever lending generously, and his children become a blessing.

 

 

Psalm 18:2

 

The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer, my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.

 

 

Let’s join in prayer, soak in these words, and make a difference in the world today!

 

Our Father, who art in heaven,

hallowed be thy name.

Your kingdom come,

your will be done,

on earth as it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread,

forgive us our trespasses,

as we forgive those who have trespassed against us.

Lead us not into temptation,

but deliver us from evil.

 

 

Make time to know God today…

 

 

Blessings,
