Rod and Staff of Comfort…

Good morning, Precious Family:

May the Peace of the Lord be with you always, in every situation and circumstance. May the Lord’s Peace be your stabilizer and foundation.

I am always grateful for the opportunity to write each week. God has allowed me this special time with you all. I will never take this time for granted.

For those of you who have been with me from the very beginning, so many years ago, I thank you. For those who just started your journey with me, I thank you. It is the continual prayers and support from each of you that has changed my life. I take great pride in knowing that there are people praying for me and my well-being spiritually, mentally, physically, and emotionally.

I have been asked, by some of you, if it would be ok to send me donations and love offering. The reason I always say NO is because this devotional is my tithe of talent and time back to God.

I also take great comfort in knowing that God is always with me. Whether I’m facing joy or sorrow, happiness or pain, fear or courage, God is always with me and with you as well. Take comfort in knowing that you are never alone.

Scriptures of Comfort

Psalm 23

Modern English Version

A Psalm of David.

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
    He makes me lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside still waters.
    He restores my soul;
He leads me in paths of righteousness
    for His name’s sake.
Even though I walk
    through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil;
    for You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff,
    they comfort me.

You prepare a table before me
    in the presence of my enemies;
You anoint my head with oil;
    my cup runs over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
    all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the Lord
    forever.

Family,

I know sometimes life and places on the path we have to walk through can be very scary, but trust and know that the God we serve is always with us. I have seen the faithfulness of God, first hand. He has proven himself over and over again.

Don’t be afraid, don’t let your heart quiver. May the peace of the Lord be with you. Rest in peace, knowing that it is ALREADY ok.  

Your sister,
