Call out to Jesus

To all of you who were affected by hurricane Ike, my prayers go out to you and your family. We don't understand the tragedies in our lives and maybe never will.

While in the midst of whatever it is we're dealing with, we may feel alone and forgotten. But know this, GOD is still there. He's still in the business of performing miracles. He's still there for us to call upon. HE STILL LOVES US and knows when we're hurting. He cares for us.

Call out to Jesus. He has "big shoulders" to lean on. Let Him wrap you in His arms and love on you.

Remember:


  • He is not the author of confusion....1Corinthians 14:33.
Be strong.

  • Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed; for the Lord thy God is with thee whitersoever thou goest ... Joshua 1:9
Trust Him.

  • I will say of the Lord, HE is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust... Ps. 91:2
Have peace knowing:

  • The Lord will fight for you.....Exodus 14:4

Go to Him!

  • Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need....Hebrews 4:16

Call out to Jesus! He's listening for you.

And know that you are in our prayers!

God bless you today.

And to my cousins in Houston, Conroe and Brenham, Texas.....we were so happy to finally get word that you are okay.

Good post...and thanks so much for leaving the sweet memories you shared. My husband thought it was a sweet story too! You were always my favorite teacher...ask anyone in my family! I still remember your curly hair, was that a perm?

Thank you Tara, that was very sweet of you to say.

I always enjoy your grandma's chats about the time when you were in my class. You all was an excellent group.....very smart little ones. :)

Yes, it was a perm. My hair is "straight as string." ;)

I tagged you to write about how you and David met and fell in love.
Just do it if you have time and want to!
