I so didn't want to write this note today. But God has been speaking it so loudly to me that I have to share. I feel He wants me to share.
I received an email from a co-worker today. The subject of this email was "The Bible On One Page". I have received emails like this before, but haven't really looked at them. Busy, avoiding... whatever the reason. Today, I thought I'd take a look. And it was interesting... Click on the link and towards the bottom of the page there are a bunch of "issues" you can choose from.
Because of the economy... I clicked on "If your bank account is empty"... I thought it was poignant. Any way - it referenced Psalm 37. And as I read, God just spoke... "Danielle, listen..."
Yes, I was reading... but I was hearing God. So sweet... and comforting. I can't even describe it.
"Commit your way to the LORD; trust in him, and he will act. He will bring forth your righteousness as the light, and your justice as the noonday." Psalm 37:5-6.
Oh how it made my heart leap! Commit my life... my choices... my ways to the Lord... TRUST Him!
"Be still before the LORD and wait patiently for him; fret not yourself over the one who prospers in his way, over the man who carries out evil devices!" Psalm 37:7.
Be still in HIM… stop trying to do things on my own! Be PATIENT… wait for Him to lead me, as the Sheppard leads his flock – so the Lord will lead me. He will shut the world out... he will silence the enemy and I can seek refuge in His presence.
I am amazed that He brought me into that place this morning... at work... while sitting at my desk.
"The salvation of the righteous is from the LORD; he is their stronghold in the time of trouble. The LORD helps them and delivers them; he delivers them from the wicked and saves them, because they take refuge in him." Psalm 37:39-40
He is my salvation... my redeemer... my refuge!
He quiets my heart (and surroundings) so that I can hear. He shows me that He is invested in my life... I want to invest my life in Him.
Oh how I desire to become the woman He wants me to be!
