I have seen so many things today that have blessed me, and it is only 2:13 p.m. God has really used a lot of people and things in my life lately to speak to me! I am just soaking up every moment of it and trying to learn as much as possible.
God is so good and I thank him daily for all he has given me and all the opportunities that have been put in my path since getting to know Him.
So to brag on God a bit......
I was told today in one of my classes that I am a great encourager. I then proceeded to tell the person that it is not me by any means who is doing the encouraging. I told them that on the inside I could use it myself, but that God gives me the words when needed and sometimes he even uses what he gives me to have me learn.
Here are a couple of verses that have been brought upon my heart that you should study, memorize, or just read when you need an encouraging word. They sure have helped me all day today!
Now may the God Who gives the power of patient endurance (steadfastness) and Who supplies encouragement, grant you to live in such mutual harmony and such full sympathy with one another, in accord with Christ Jesus. - Romans 15:5 -
Do not let your hearts be troubled (distressed, agitated). You believe in and adhere to and trust in and rely on God; believe in and adhere to and trust in and rely also on Me. - John 14:1 -
I really enjoyed reading these and just getting to truly understand what God has in store for me. I have been asking God why these two verses have popped in my head and heart all week and all day. I found out just a few minutes ago. A really good friend of mine, C-dog for purposes of concealing her name, father passed away unexpectedly. God gave me these verses as encouragement to her. We thank God that He was in her father's life. :)
Remember to not let your heart be troubled....Trust in God and rely on Him.
