Beloved,

These are indeed beautiful words and a great reminder of God’s deep love and interest in us.  The trick is knowing the difference between our plans and God’s plans.  Let your prayers be for wisdom and discernment as you invoke the Holy Spirit to guide your words, thoughts and actions.  Peace and Love, Scott

Come To Me with your plans held in abeyance.  Worship Me in spirit and in truth, allowing My Glory to permeate your entire being.  Trust Me enough to let Me guide you through this day, accomplishing My purposes in My timing.  Subordinate your myriad plans to My Master Plan.  I am sovereign over every aspect of your life!

The challenge continually before you is to trust Me and search for My way through each day.  Do not blindly follow your habitual route, or you will miss what I have prepared for you.  As the heavens are higher than earth, so are My ways higher than your ways and My thoughts than your thoughts.

John 4:24 ²⁴God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth.”

Isaiah 55:8-9 (NKJV) ⁸ “ For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways,” says the LORD. ⁹ “ For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways, And My thoughts than your thoughts.

Dear Friends,

We had great rehearsals last night!  Brittany came back to play horn for us and Rhonda Whitmer came back, told us her amazing story and even had Rose, her mom, sing with us.  A great evening of fun, fellowship (Karen’s whip cream filled strawberries were outstanding!) and worship.  God is here!  Blessings friends, Scott

As You Sit Quietly in My Presence, remember that I am a God of abundance.  I will never run out of resources; My capacity to bless you is unlimited.  You live in a world of supply and demand, where necessary things are often scarce.  Even if you personally have enough, you see poverty in the world around you.  It is impossible for you to comprehend the lavishness of My provisions: the fullness of My glorious riches.

Through spending time in My Presence, you gain glimpses of My overflowing vastness.  These glimpses are tiny foretastes of what you will experience in heaven.  Even now you have access to as much of Me as you have faith to receive.  Rejoice in My abundance, walk by faith, not by sight.

Philippians 4:19 ¹⁹And my God will meet all your needs according to his glorious riches in Christ Jesus.

2 Corinthians 5:7 ⁷We live by faith, not by sight.

Dear Friends,

I hope I’m not too late in getting this out to you!  Fact is, it’s never too late to re-focus your eyes and attention to God.  Make time!  Peace, Scott

I Am Your Lord!  Seek Me as Friend and Lover of your soul, but remember that I am also King of kings-sovereign over all.  You can make some plans as you gaze into the day that stretches out before you.  But you need to hold those plans tentatively, anticipating that I may have other ideas.  The most important thing to determine is what to do right now.  Instead of scanning the horizon of your life, looking for things that need to be done, concentrate on the task before you and the One who never leaves your side.  Let everything else fade into the background.  This will unclutter your mind, allowing Me to occupy more and more of your consciousness.

Trust Me to show you what to do when you have finished what you are doing now.  I will guide you step by step, as you bend your will to Mine.  Thus you stay close to Me on the path of Peace.

Proverbs 19:21  ²¹ Many are the plans in a man’s heart, but it is the LORD’s purpose that prevails. 

Luke 1:79  ⁷⁹to shine on those living in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the path of peace.”
