5-minute Reflection

Hey guys, try reading this slowly...

I Quiet My Heart

Today is a gift,
Another opportunity to grow into the person God designed me to be.
Is God calling me to stand firm? To move forward?
Is God challenging me to trust? To let go?
Where have I failed? Where have I fallen?
Where am I bound? What holds me back?

I turn off my music, me cell phone, and I quiet my heart.

Humility

To give us everything, He became nothing.
To live in fullness, I must become empty.
Before I can run through this day, I must first walk.
Before I can walk, I must first stand.
Before I can stand, I must first kneel.

On my knees, I begin today’s journey.
I share with the Lord my fears.

Faith

Realizing that the Lord knows me better than I know myself,
I can approach Him in complete honesty.

Trusting that the Lord loves me more than I love myself,
I can move forward today in total confidence.

I pray for the courage to let the Lord direct me.
I share with the Lord, my hopes and invite Him into my dreams.

Jeremiah 29:1
For I know well the plans I have in mind for you, says the Lord, plans for your welfare, not for woe! Plans to give you a future full of hope.
