Guiltless My-My-My

Ps. 31:24Be of good courage, And He shall strengthen your heart, All you who hope in the LORD. I'm so thankful the above verse ministered to me yesterdaywhen I needed it desperately!I'm so thankful for the constant remindersthat God will never leave me or forsake me,but He comes to me sometimes through the care and compassion of fellowman,and sometimes through His Word whispered to me!Oh, pray we may seek to hide his Word in our heartsto equip us for whatever today brings I am so thankful that 'I can do all thingsthrough Christ who strengthens me'Phil.4:13 I was torn between writing in first person 'my'or for every believer 'our'I decided to make it tenderly, vulnerably and joyfully personal but the word 'our' can be easily substituted for 'my' as wellso we can 'rejoice in the Lord' together!
