The Shield of FAITH

On Sunday Pastor Ron had us reading Ephesians 6, What part of God's armor might we be lacking in was his challenge to us. As I read that passage sitting in my seat that day, I was sure for me it is the Shield of Faith that I have lack of...I acknowledged that and confessed to the Lord, that I would work on that and then went merrily on my way........
I have been in some personal struggles and as only God can do He will bring to me my issues.
Today, Katie passed on a little devotional book from Beth Moore and I opened to read this:
" IN EVERY SITUATION TAKE THE SHIELD OF FAITH, AND WITH IT YOU WILL BE ABLE TO EXTINGUISH THE FLAMING ARROWS OF THE EVIL ONE." Ephesians 6:16

Beth writes," WHEN WE RESPOND TO ATTACKS OF DOUBT, DISTORTION, AND DECEIT WITH THE TRUTH OF GOD'S WORD, THE FIERY DART IS EXTINGUISHED AND THE ENEMY TAKES ANOTHER HIT."
Okay Lord, I have heard and I will obey YOU!
Faith will be where you can find me .....

Isaiah 40:31

"....BUT those who hope in the Lord
will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles;
they will run and not grow weary,
they will walk and not grow faint."
Isaiah 40:31 NIV
my verse for the year
God has revealed to me why He gave me this verse.
I pray for HOPE ( which is WAIT) in the NASB
I look forward to renewing of strength, for I am weak
I want to soar
and run without growing weary
and walk with out growing faint.
I am trusting God so that I can have hope
and waiting for His perfect plan to show forth
I am doing what He would require
and I am going to OBEY
amen

QUILT CREATE ENJOY


My sister, Margaret, made these letters for my quilting room using her Cricut. They are so much fun and really look cool on my mirror closet doors. It is good to have a sister! Love you Margaret and thank you for the great gift.
