Peace, joy, energy… goodness. Oh how I want to be overflowing with these things. The entire human race is starved for such riches, I see it.

There’s turmoil. In this world, in our families, relationships, and on social media – no doubt. It’s so unsettling, isn’t it?

My rocky emotions finally tipped the boat into a sea of disheartenment last week. But I was determined not to sink. You know why? Because I’ve learned of a good God who loves me. Each one of us in fact, who will not let us fall if we lean on him.

Surely there’s something that has you disheartened too? And first let me say… you are not alone. I feel you. My friend, I see you.

But now I want to remind you, like I need the DAILY reminder myself… If you lean harder, rely more deeply, on God, He will rescue your drowning soul and carry you to dry land. Where His peace, His strength, and joy are waiting to greet you.

Go to Him. Lean on Him. Rely on Him.

I promise you, He promises you…The more you lean into Him today, the more His blessings will fill your way.

Reflect:  Are you needing a “pick me up?” Will you allow God to be your “go to” for all that you need today?

Pray:  Dear Lord, I feel the pull down and out. I want to be filled with your peace and all the goodness you have to offer. Help me lean harder on you today so that I may receive what you have your arms open to so freely give. In your great name I pray. Amen. 

Seek the Word:  Seek the LORD and his strength; seek his presence continually! (1 Chronicles 16:11)  And this same God who takes care of me will supply all your needs from his glorious riches, which have been given to us in Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:19) 

Have a blessed week! 

Your friend, Keri Ann
