7 Big Benefits of Standing on God in a Topsy-Turvy World
Wouldn’t it be great to stand strong in this world gone mad? You can! I’d like to send you 7 scriptures that describe exactly what happens when we decide to trust God as the foundation in our lives. (Hint, one is joy. Another is unmoveability. I think that’s a made-up word, but the scripture isn’t made up. It’s for real.)
Anyway, join my subscriber tribe here! (And look in your inbox for those 7 scriptures!)
Such an excellent piece of insight. Thank you for this my friend..
Thank you, Donna. That means a lot to me. ❤️
As always, 👏👏👏👏👏.
I appreciate that, Tiff, but let’s be real. You’re one of the bravest women I know. I see God in you.
Sometimes the bravest thing is to NOT do something cuz God isn’t calling you to do it; He is calling someone else. We must listen to His leading & obey. 👍🏻
Oh for sure, sometimes self-control and wisdom to hold back are the bravest things, Carole-Lee. Thanks for that perspective! I never realized what a brave, raw, active pursuit self-control was until it was put to the test.
🙏🏻❤️ Thanks for your insight and inspiration to keep on keepin on:)
Sal! Keep on keepin’ on. Yes! And so much better than the alternative. Thanks for reading, sweet friend. I hope it blessed you. ❤️
Bless you, Laurie, for encouraging others to lean into God with their dreams and tools. I love you. Can’t wait to read that book!
Thank you, Claudia. By my calculations of wind speed and free time, it will be about 2024. Kidding! I’m working on it. I know you know what it takes to get one done. ❤️
Well said, Laurie! You have a gift and you use it so well. I know God smiles at you and calls you “Beloved”!
Mary Jane, thank you ever and always for your encouragement. So thankful for longtime friends like you who remind of my roots when I sit down to write. 😘
You are unmasking my own fears, Laurie, & giving them a talking-to. Thank you for this! I’m encouraged today to fail forward. Bravely.
“Unmasking my own fears and giving them a talking-to.” I am printing that out, Cathy, and taping it where I can see it. It’s easy to do what God has wired me to do. But words like this are the icing on the cake, my friend. Thank you. Just lovely.
One of your male admirers, Momma D. You’ve got such a way with words, which always brings me back for more. Wilbur and Orville are my heroes! Obviously. Thank you for using them as your examples. What a tie in to a teenage shepherd, Moses with a stick, a boy with five loaves, a sinful woman and sweet teenage Mary.. That part gave me goosebumps. Philippians 4:13 “I can do ALL things through CHRIST who strengthens me.”
Hermann, thanks for your comment. This site takes all comers — you just have to contend with my primarily pink and soft tones color palette! We all have something to offer each other in our love for the gospel, for sure.
And, I love the Wright brothers’ story! They are such an example of perseverance and stick-to-it-iveness, not to mention innovation and patience with the collection of data that still forms the basis for aerodynamic principles and study today. Glad you saw this one. And thank you, as ever, for reading.
My favorite insight of the MANY profound ones you reveal in this blog:
…there is a light that shines on our actions. My friend Janet talked about this in her mind-blowing bible study on the touchy, twitchy subject of good works last night. But the light isn’t so we’ll look awesome. It’s so that God will.
Thank you for inspiring me to try, try again!
