It’s really good.
This opportunity to have a safe place I can breathe.
It’s really a blessing.
My family who serve me, love me, pray for me.
It’s really humbling.
This taste of confinement, so comfortable and pretty, when others experience poverty, illness, need, displacement, fear, and persecution.
It’s really sweet.
All the texts and prayers of others.
Those who are concerned about me and our family.
It’s really incredible.
To think about how I stopped counting the days of confinement when I was too sick to get out of bed.
To realize how much God has healed me and how blessed I am to have another day.
It’s really an opportunity.
To stay safe in my room and pray for those who are out working to stop the blaze, those who are helping others find safety, those who have left everything behind, and those who are frightened and uncertain what tomorrow will bring.
“Lord, please be with each one.”
To spend time before my Lord lifting up so many.
To praise Him for His faithfulness and His mercy.
To worship Him, no matter what tomorrow brings, because:
He is worthy.
Bless the Lord , O my soul! O Lord my God, You are very great: You are clothed with honor and majesty,
Psalms 104:1 NKJV
I will call upon the Lord , who is worthy to be praised; So shall I be saved from my enemies.
II Samuel 22:4 NKJV
And one cried to another and said: “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts; The whole earth is full of His glory!”
Isaiah 6:3 NKJV
Dear Lord Jesus,
Thank You so much for Your Word. It is such a comfort. There is such depth of wisdom, knowledge, and encouragement. Lord Jesus, please stop those who would harm others or put people in danger. Please strengthen those who are serving communities and providing for others. Lord, let those who are struggling find their comfort in You. Please protect the innocent and place a hedge of protection around the weak. Lord, nothing that is done is missed by You. Thank You for watching over us all with such love and compassion, mercy and grace. Thank You for being God Almighty, our place of refuge. Amen.

I commend to you our sister Phoebe, who is a servant of the church which is at Cenchrea; that you receive her in the Lord in a manner worthy of the saints, and that you help her in whatever matter she may have need of you; for she herself has also been a helper of many, and of myself as well. Romans 16:1-2
You, dear woman, are Phoebe. Your heart is an open highway to the Almighty. May He continue to bless and keep you and yours all days all the way.
Words can not express how much I appreciate your encouraging comment. I’m truly humbled and grateful to God for His blessing through your words. Thank you. May God be glorified.❤️
Amen!
Keep safe and may you always experience God’s amazing grace and faithfulness.
I certainly have and feel sure I’ll continue to since He is faithful. Blessings!
Amen to that! Blessings too!
