Jesus Calling:



I am with you and for you. When you decide on a course of action that is in line with My will, nothing in heaven or on earth can stop you. You may encounter many obstacles as you move toward your goal, but don't be discouraged--never give up! With My help, you can overcome any obstacle. Do not expect an easy path as you journey hand in hand with Me, but remember that I, your very-present Helper, am omnipotent.
Much, much stress results from your wanting to make things happen before their times have come. One of the main ways I assert My sovereignty is in the timing of events. If you want to stay close to Me and do things My way, ask Me to show you the path forward moment by moment. Instead of dashing headlong toward your goal, let Me set the pace. Slow down, and enjoy the journey in My presence.
What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?
 (Romans 8:31 ESV)
 46 God is our refuge and strength,
 A very present help in trouble.
 Therefore we will not fear,
 Even though the earth be removed,
 And though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;
 Though its waters roar and be troubled,
 Though the mountains shake with its swelling. Selah
 (Psalm 46:1-3 NKJV)

For nothing will be impossible with God.”

  1. Thanks, Patricia, for posting this! What is time anyway?! It is awe inspiring to contemplate the eternity of God! The great I AM WHO AM! Every moment the present intersects with the eternal. If one looks at the cross as a timeline, one can see this demonstrated...the horizontal line is time; the vertical line is eternity. And to think that the Eucharist places us at the Crucifixion and at the Heavenly Banquet... in union with the Eternal God! Our Love comes to us and stays with us! This is such an encouragement!
    In all things, put your petitions before God and peace which surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.
