Laying on my desk this morning was a card advertising a book. On one side of the card was this statement. His beliefs sent him to prison his faith set him free. I read that over and over today and began to think about this statement. We might not ever be sent to prison for our beliefs but at the same time we can be in a type of prison. Problems we might have might seem like being in prison. Sometimes people might say things to hurt our feelings or say untruths about us or maybe a family member. When this happens we might get upset or even angry. If we continue to dwell on this we put ourselves or allow the devil to put us in prison.
The last part of the words on the card say his faith set him free. If we rely on God and let go of the things upsetting us or making angry, have faith that God will handle the situation we will be set free.
Something to think about.

"God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear though the earth gives way, though the mountains be moved into the heart of the sea, though its waters roar and foam, though the mountains tremble at its swelling." This is found in Psalm 46.
But what if......God will be there. But what if....God will be there.
As you read on down in the Psalm we are told God is in the midst of her and she will not be moved. and God will help her and The Lord of hosts is with us.
Sometimes when things aren't going just right we forget God is there. No matter how big or little the problem is God is there.
How do we let go and let God handle things? Read verse 10. "Be still and know I am God."
Something to think about today. Have a great one.

New Year
It is a new morning, new day, a new year.
One of my favorite scriptures is Lamentations 3:20-22 The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; His mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is thy faithfulness. The Lord is my portion says my soul therefore I will hope in Him.
New every morning! His mercies never cease! That is why we have hope!
Something to think about in this new year.
( I haven't written on my blog in a long time and thought that I would start again in this new year.)
