Day 51 of 365: He Cares…

Sacred Journey Devotionals: A Journey To WholenessLeave a comment

Greetings, Precious Family:

May the Peace of the Lord be with you.

Family, when life gets tough and you feel like throwing in the towel, please remember that God cares for you. Also, remember that there are so many instances when the world watches how we respond to trials, tests, and tribulations. No, I’m not saying to be fake or insincere. What I’m saying is to trust God through whatever you are going through.

When you are tired and want to sit down and throw your hands up, it is perfectly alright to do that. Just remember to take a deep breath, ask the Lord to help you to your feet, and keep moving until you can grab ahold of hope. You are not alone. Remember to ask for help and prayer. The enemy will try to isolate you through depression and anxiety but don’t give in. Call out for help. You are not alone.

If you ever need someone to talk to because you are thinking about giving up, please call 988 for the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline. You are NEVER ALONE.

Scripture Passage of the Day

Isaiah 41:10-13
New International Version


10 So do not fear, for I am with you;
do not be dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you and help you;
I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

11 “All who rage against you
will surely be ashamed and disgraced;
those who oppose you
will be as nothing and perish.
12 Though you search for your enemies,
you will not find them.
Those who wage war against you
will be as nothing at all.
13 For I am the Lord your God
who takes hold of your right hand
and says to you, Do not fear;
I will help you.

Let Us Pray

Spirit of the Living God, thank you for reminding us how to pray when words escape us. Jesus told us to pray this prayer. Our Father who are in heaven, holy is your name. Your kingdom come, and your will be done in my life, as it has been spoken and decreed in heaven.

Lord God, you are the Bread of Life. Go with us today and be our portion and our sustenance. You are the Great, I Am. Everything we need you already have prepared for us.

Forgive us of our sins against you and our sins against others. I will remember to forgive others as well. Protect us from anything that would try to separate us from you. You Lord deserve all the glory, honor, and power. In Jesus name we do pray.

And we let it be…And so it is…

Amen, Amen, and Amen

Day 50 of 365: The Appointed (Kairos) Time

Sacred Journey Devotionals: A Journey To WholenessLeave a comment

Greetings, Precious Family:

May the Peace of the Lord be with you.

Family, have you ever put together a jigsaw puzzle or a large 100-piece or 1000 piece  puzzle? The front of the box is this perfect image that you are so excited to put together.

First thing, you open the box, and all the pieces are on the table. Suddenly, you begin to realize that this puzzle may not be as simple as it looked. This puzzle is going to take patience, time, and looking back at the cover to remember what the image is supposed to look like.

What you thought was going to take a few hours has now turned into a few days and maybe even a few weeks, depending on how much time you dedicate to it each day. Each time you sit back down to work on the puzzle, the first thing you do is look at the cover to remind yourself of the completed look. Then, one day, it is finally time to put the last piece of the puzzle into its place. What a wonderful feeling!!! You did it!!!

Family, it is the same with God. He knows where all the puzzle pieces go in our lives. How often are we willing to lay on the table, in stillness, and allow him to put the right pieces into place?

Scripture Passage of the Day

Jeremiah 29:11-13
New International Version


11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. 12 Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. 13 You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.

Let Us Pray

Spirit of the Living God, thank you for continuing to work on us. Let us not grow weary, tired, or frustrated when we are not as far along as we think we should be. Give us peace in knowing that the more we surrender to your will, the faster the pieces will come together. So many times we want to ask, “Is it done yet?” but we trust you and your kairos (ordained time). Let it be so, in Jesus’ name.

Amen, Amen, and Amen
