I will be glad and rejoice in your love,
for you saw my affliction and knew the anguish of my soul.
Psalm 31:7

 

 

Awake, awake my soul
to the One who never lets go
don’t ever lose wonder of hope
there’s never an end to this rope.
This is your day, take heart
let His peace fill the deepest part
as it flows through the flats and sharps
lose yourself in the beauty of His art.
Awake, oh my soul, to Jesus
in Him is your every reason
for living and breathing and being.
Once again, my soul, it’s worth repeating
to the One who never lets go, giving hope
live each day in abandoned thanks-living
just because you’re alive and breathing.

“This is the day the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.” Psalm 118:24

 

God doesn’t want us living in fear. What He wants is to give us peace, comfort, and joy. He desires for us to live each day as gift of thanksgiving to Him.

 

Instead of spending each day in worry, let’s seek to remember the things we are thankful for. When we live in thanksgiving, we have peace with God. God has seen our afflictions and the anguish of our souls, and He will not let us go.

 

Oh Lord, awaken my soul to You. May I keep my mind on You. And be thankful for each day as You breathe Your breath into my lungs so I can be a blessing to others.

 

From My Heart to Yours,
Marcie
