Another Beautiful Day! I read today's high is going to be around 37 degrees. :-) I love it!
My left hand froze up again on Friday night...I had to up the prednisone to help with the freeze and other symptoms I'm experiencing. I have my Dr appointment on Monday with Dr. Danning. I will see what direction she wants me to go...
I know I've had a hard time waiting on God to work. I will try harder to wait and let Him work in and through me. Amen
So thankful for all I can do...

“I will say of the Lord, He is my Refuge and my Fortress, my God; on Him I lean and rely, and in Him I [confidently] trust!”
(Psalm 91:2, AMP)
TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria
What are you saying of the Lord today? In other words, what are you declaring that God will do in your life? The next verse in this passage says, “And He will cover me, deliver me and protect me.” Notice the connection: “I will say” and “He will do.” What a wonderful promise! On the other hand, if we’re not saying anything, we’re not releasing our faith. So you could read the passage in the reverse, “I will not say of the Lord, and He will not do.”
Always remember that your words have creative power. Life and death are in the power of the tongue. When you declare who God is in your life, you are displaying your faith and trust in Him. Faith is what pleases God and opens the door for Him to move in your life. Today, declare God’s greatness in your life. Declare that He is faithful. Say of the Lord and watch what He will do on your behalf!
A PRAYER FOR TODAY
Father, thank You for Your goodness and faithfulness in my life. I choose Your promises. I choose to declare that You are my Refuge and my Fortress. I will trust and hope in You all the days of my life in Jesus’ name. Amen.
— Joel & Victoria Osteen

Today's Bible Study
By Dr. Charles Stanley
Be strong and let your heart take courage.
Psalm 27:14
It is wise to wait upon the Lord in order to receive His clear direction for our lives, to keep in step with His timing, to prepare us for what He wants to give us in life, and to sift our motives.
But how are we to wait? What should be the attitude with which we wait? How can we position ourselves to receive His help?
God expects us to wait:
Patiently. Making quick decisions often means making wrong decisions and forcing action when God is planning a different approach and outcome. As difficult as it may seem, we must wait until we are certain God has spoken to us.
Quietly. We cannot hear God’s still small voice when we drown Him out with our clamorous anxiety.
Full of trust. Doubting God stymies what He wants to do in your life and for you. His Word and His promises are unfailingly true, and it honors Him when you live out your faith in trust and confidence in Him.
Steadfastly. It can be so tempting to act on impulse or to follow the advice of others. While God may use other people or circumstances to lead you, what you are hearing or experiencing must always square with God’s Word.
Courageously. Sometimes waiting requires the courage to suffer through difficult or harsh circumstances. God often strengthens us through trials, increasing our faith even as His hand undergirds us.
