Highs -n- Lows Living with the Disease

Another Beautiful Day! 

The decision for the Volunteer Coordinator position will be decided by the end of the week.  Continue to pray for God's will.  :-)

I feel at peace with all that is going on within my life...I trust God and know He will take good care of me...

As I've been going through this journey I have been taking pictures...documenting the good days and bad.   As I look back at these pictures I realize I've had a lot of flares or bad day :-(.

I am so thankful for all I can do...

Today's Bible Study

Experiencing Inner Peace
By Charles Stanley
Read | Luke 8:22-25

Jesus promised to give us His peace (John 14:27)—the kind that enabled Him to sleep through a fierce storm. Without it, we'd be like the disciples, who felt helpless and afraid. With it, we will experience inner calmness in the midst of life's turmoil.

To access the peace of the Lord, we must meet certain conditions. The first requirement is to receive Jesus as our personal Savior. Before salvation, we were by nature opposed to God. But our redemption changed that. The Bible says we now have peace with Him (Rom. 5:10) and are members of His family, instead of His enemies. Fear of death—a major reason that we lack peace—evaporates as we comprehend the glorious truth that we will spend eternity in heaven with Him.

Believing in God's sovereignty is a second condition for having a tranquil heart. In this troubled world, personal safety is a major concern. To combat fear, we must trust that God controls all things. Knowing that He is in charge will protect us from anxiety and give us peace.

The third thing we must do is understand that God knows our needs and has promised to meet each one (Phil. 4:19). He is a loving Father who delights in giving good gifts to His children. We may not receive all we want, but He'll give us whatever is necessary to fulfill His purpose for us.

Once we have received Christ as our Savior, the Holy Spirit will remind us that our future is secure, and our loving, sovereign God will see to it that we have everything we need.

Looking forward to another great day....
