Be still….

Psalm 46:10 Be still and know that I am God

Some days and weeks I need to remember this more than others. This is one of them! Thanks to Anna for the sweet reminder.

My prayer today-

Balance. It always comes back to balance. And as the Psalmist said, being still, and knowing You. That’s the still centre of the turning world, the world that some days feels it’s whizzing faster and faster and faster.
If I’m on the outer rim, it races around so fast I’m clinging on by my fingernails, terrified and screaming like the worst sort of carnival ride. If I’m focused on You, at the centre, there’s calm and peace and I can breathe again. Ahhhh….
Help me to remember Lord. Help me to keep my eyes on You, always. Help me to know true stillness, and seek that in my life, by seeking You in my life above all else.
Thank You!

Psalm 139:13-14  – God’s unique creation

For You shaped me, inside and out.
You knitted me together in my mother’s womb long before I took my first breath.
I will offer You my grateful heart, for I am Your unique creation, filled with wonder and awe.
You have approached even the smallest details with excellence;
Your works are wonderful;
I carry this knowledge deep within my soul.
Psalm 139:13-14 The Voice

I’m guest blogging today at Inspy Romance, on how these verses changed Alistair, the hero of my story in the Splash! boxed set, More Than Friends.

Philippians 4:6-7  Do not be anxious….

Image of sun on grass with Bible verse Phil 4:6-7, from Christian romance author Autumn Macarthur

Do not be anxious about anything,
but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving
let your requests be made known to God.
And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding,
will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

Blessed be the Lord

Psalm 68:19-20Image of calm sea with text from Psalm 68:19-20, from Autumn Macarthur, Christian romance author

Blessed be the Lord
who carries our heavy loads every day,
the True God who is our salvation.
We know our God is the God who delivers us,
and the Eternal, the Lord, is the One who saves us from the grip of death.

Hallelujah, death is beaten!

It’s not just eggs and baby chicks and bunnies.

The true meaning of Easter – Jesus conquered death for us! He died, a horrible death by torture, but rose again, so that we to can rise in Him. He conquered death for us!

Praying God’s blessings on us all this glorious Easter Sunday.
