Day 68 of 365: Cooling Down…

Greetings, Precious Family:

May the Peace of the Lord be with you.

Family, I’ve always promised to be transparent and honest. Today is one of those days that I am mad, confused, and want to have an “Easy” button to push. It seems like things aren’t going as planned, and if they are going as planned, the plan is taking a mighty long time. I know that the space I’m in right now – I can’t hear the Holy Spirit because my brain is going 100 mph. It is in these times that I have to ask for the Lord’s forgiveness and allow his grace and peace to come and wash over me.

So, I leave you with this scripture for today.

God spoke these words to Israel when they felt trapped, overwhelmed, and unsure of the plan—much like we do sometimes. Stillness doesn’t mean giving up; it means trusting. When we can’t see progress, God is still at work. When our minds won’t slow down, His power hasn’t sped up or slowed down—it remains constant.

Sometimes the most faithful thing we can do is stop striving, breathe, and remember: the battle is not ours to control, but God’s to fight.

Scripture Passage of the Day

Exodus 14:14
New International Version


14 The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still.”

Let Us Pray

Lord, quiet my racing thoughts. Forgive me when frustration clouds my faith. Help me to be still, trust Your timing, and rest in the truth that You are fighting for me. Let Your grace and peace wash over me today. In the precious and perfect name of Jesus, The Christ.

And we let it be…And so it is

Amen, Amen, and Amen
