I decided to start this blog (2010) because my son, John-Robert gave me a One Year Bible for Christmas, the New Living Translation... reading it has changed my life... I post a daily Bible verse on my Facebook page every day and it has been well received... I thought that this would be a wonderful way to share part of what I read each day!... I hope that you enjoy it.



This Year 2012 I am going to do things a little different... not much...just a little. I am again reading through my One Year Bible (for the 3rd time). But I am also using "The Secret Power of Speaking God's Word" by Joyce Meyer. This book is divided by putting scriptures under different categories so they can be used to speak over our life situations. Each day I will read a category of scripture and pick a scripture in that category to write about.

8.28.11

Psalms 21:11 Why a I discouraged? Why is my heart so sad? I will put my hope in God! I will praise him again-- my Savior and my God!

My Thoughts
We have all been there, well most of us.  In that deep dark place, discouraged and sad not even knowing why.  Just that dark veil of emptiness. We can even know we could call out to God but what would we say? When you don't know why your are sad and discouraged you don't even know what to ask for! The devil loves when we get in that place, it is when we are most vulnerable. Here the psalmst gives us the solution... we just put our hope in God.. when we don't know what to say, what to ask for we just start praising God, drawing him near to us. God knows, God always know... he knows where the darkness comes from even when we don't.  We don't have to know!  All we have to do is call out to God praise him in the mist of our darkest and we will begin to see light. When we praise God we can feel, actually feel the weight of the world being lifted off our shoulders.
