Yesterday I confessed to you how exhausted I am. Exhausted not in the sense that I just want to sleep. Exhausted in the sense that I have a lot on my plate and am a bit overwhelmed. So after a long day I came home and turned to the Word. I’d like to say that I come home every day and open up the Word, but that’s not true. But yesterday the Lord laid it on my heart that I needed to spend time reading His love letter. And He shared with me exactly what I needed. I’m currently reading through 1 Corinthians and the bookmark I am using right now is one given to me as a gift from one of my middle school girls. It is a beautiful hand written bookmark with Exodus 14:14 on it. This verse alone spoke wonders to my soul yesterday. Yes my days are busy. Yes I have a lot to do in the next few months. But Yahweh stands by my side. He will fight my battles… I just need to be still and let Him. We need to be still and let Him.
