Encouragement

It's been no doubt that I have had a trying week.

I have learned to rely on Jesus more, so I feel like that is a major accomplishment.

The other day, my wonderful momma sent me this message.


Philippians 4:6-7 (New International Version)

6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

I am so blessed with people around me that encourage me and believe in me.  I am so thankful for parents that encourage me to rely more on God and less on my own self.  I sometimes just need a gentle reminder and they have always been there to remind me that I am loved so much. 


This verse has been such a great verse for me this week.  I know it will be a favorite for a long time.  There is a peace beyond all understanding and that is found in Christ. I am so thankful for that peace. 


Have a wonderful week!

I love you---I know that you have a lot on your plate, but take little bites and soon it will all be gone! Hang in there and don't worry, be happy....oh wait, that is a song, not the Bible verse! :-)
