Woke up to a cloudy, cold 'very' windy Friday morning..Hubby and I have a fun wager going on...who can guess when our first 'warm' (not hot) day of Spring is going to arrive!! So far we are way behind around here in Michigan for warm days...my guess is May 1st and his is May 21st so will keep you posted!!
Yesterday I read this devotional and was so blessed..I think the photo of the sunflowers is what caught my interest first and then I was so glad I stopped and took time to read it so thought I'd share it here. Enjoy!
Remember Who You Really Are {Coffee for Your Heart}Holley, 2014-03-26 14:00
Dear You,
When life crowds in on us and pushes us hard, we can forget who we are. We start to look around us and think, “Is this me? Is this who I am now?”
Our perspective gets blurred, and the enemy tries to persuade us that
we are not the woman God has told us we are—the woman he’s promised we
always will be.
Life
has ups and downs for all of us. So whether you’re at the end of a hard
day, in the middle of celebrating, or somewhere in between, there’s
some truth you need to hear. And it’s this: you are not your circumstances.
In
all the moments of your life, you are a woman of grace and strength.
Even when you feel weak, you have divine power within you that is able
to get you through anything. And you are loved far more than you can
even imagine. How you feel today, what you’re facing, even what others
may say doesn’t change that—and never can.
Who
you are is secure forever. And you are a daughter of God, a holy
princess, a woman who is chosen and cherished. Nothing and no one can
take that away from you. You have within you a God who is bigger than
your bad days and stronger than your circumstances, and he will never
let you go. He has promised that nothing will defeat you and no one can
stand against you.
So keep pressing forward, friend. Hold your head up high and know that you are loved.
Yesterday. Today. Tomorrow.
Whatever has happened or is yet to be can’t change that even a little bit.
And it can’t change who you really are—a beloved child of God who belongs to and with him forever.
XOXO
