Good day and praise God that He has given us another day and another chance. As I was going through my study today, I was feeling a little angry about some things that have taken place over the last few days in my life and how I have been let down by people making commitments that they didn’t keep. I got up and walked outside and looked down and saw my shadow and it was following me no matter where I went and how I felt. I thought about JESUS and a big smile came to my face and the pity party and fit of anger was over.
Lamentations 3::22-24
The faithful love of the Lordnever ends! His mercies never cease. Great is his faithfulness; his mercies begin afresh each morning. I say to myself, “The Lordis my inheritance; therefore, I will hope in him!”
Do you get it? I did!
Today’s Prayer
Father , “here am I, send me.”Isaiah experienced Your presence and fell on his face in repentance. He was so in awe that he cried out for You to send Him. Lord, as a child of yours, I beg for Your forgiveness and ask You to send me out into my world of influence to do Your will, to reach others for You, to accomplish that which You would have me do. I pray for Your guidance always and Your wisdom, and boldness through the Holy Spirit. I pray for my neighbors, that those who know You would grow closer to You and be Christ like in the community and that those who do not know You will see Jesus in us and our lives. I pray that they will see themselves in need of a Savior, and see the blessings You have bestowed upon us, and know that You are God. In JESUS’ name I pray, Amen.
Let’s eat.
Shadows
Shadow of the Rock
King James
Isaiah 32:2
And a man shall be as an hiding place from the wind, and a covert from the tempest; as rivers of water in a dry place, as the shadow of a great rock in a weary land.
Living Bible
Isaiah 32:2
He will shelter Israel from the storm and wind. He will refresh her as a river in the desert and as the cooling shadow of a mighty rock within a hot and weary land.
Salvation Shadow of His wings
New Living Translation
Psalms 63:1-7
O
God, you are my God; I earnestly search for you.
My
soul thirsts for you; my whole body longs for you
in
this parched and weary land where there is no water. I have seen you
in your sanctuary and gazed upon your power and glory. Your unfailing
love is better than life itself; how I praise you! I will praise you
as long as I live, lifting up my hands to you in prayer. You satisfy
me more than the richest feast. I will praise you with songs of joy.
I lie awake thinking of you, meditating on you through the night.
Because you are my helper, I
sing for joy in the shadow of your wings.
Protection Shadow of His Presence
King James
Song of Solomon 2:3
As the apple tree among the trees of the wood, so is my beloved among the sons. I sat down under his shadow with great delight, and his fruit was sweet to my taste.
Living Bible
Song of Solomon 2:3
``My lover is an apple tree, the finest in the orchard as compared with any of the other youths.I am seated in his much-desired shade and his fruit is lovely to eat.

Faith is realizing that I am useful to God not in spite of my scars but because of them.
