Be Still My Heart - Listen and Pray

I've often been told that we have to stop and be still to hear God talking. Sometimes we are so caught up in our worries that we don't hear God. We only see the bad things that happen and forget the good things. We forget to thank God for each day we have on this earth. We forget to thank God for the sunshine or the rain. We forget to thank God for our sight, our hearing, our freedom to worship Him openly. We need to remember these things as well as we need to show non-believers and sometimes other Christians that with God all things are possible and that they just have to believe and accept Jesus Christ and they too can have eternal life. Because "Through Christ all things are possible." That verse is in 2 Corinthians but I'm unable to remember the verse at this time. We need to be thankful for all that we have from the food on our tables, to the clothes on our backs and the roofs over our heads. Remember to thank God for our health, and to pray for those that are ill or have diseases. Remember not to judge someone to quickly. You don't know what they are facing or what journey they are on, but ask God to bless them and to keep them safe. Remember God is always with us, and we are never alone. I often think of these words, and know them to be very true. "Where you see only one set of footprints, it was then that I carried you." May God Bless you all today. Love, L
