"Jesus Calling"

"Hold my hand and walk joyously with Me through this day. Together we will savor the pleasures and endure the difficulties it brings. Be on the lookout for everything I have prepared for you; stunning scenery, bracing winds of adventure, cozy nooks for resting when you are weary, and much more. I am your Guide, as well as your constant Companion. I know every step of the journey ahead of you, all the way to heaven.

You don't have to choose between staying close to Me and staying on course. Since I am the Way, staying close to Me is staying on course. As you focus your thoughts on Me, I will guide you carefully along today's journey, Don't worry about what is around the next bend. Just concentrate on enjoying My Presence and staying in step with Me."

Letting go of our blankets...

This is something special I read the other evening and it has stayed on my heart to share...

"As a generation, we have been taught to hold on to our blankets - to take charge of our lives and secure our future even at the expense of those around us. But we fail to realize that the security of our future rests not in our blankets, but in Jesus sitting next to us. When we choose to give instead of keep, we discover a little taste of heaven on earth. When we choose to let go of what little we have and surrender it to God, then we receive the bounty of His kingdom."
