A Rich Life

I live a rich life -- I have a husband of 32 years (yes, he has put up with me that long); I have awesome friends that encourage me; and (most of all) I serve an awesome God. It's a rich life. Perhaps everything isn't exactly how I wish it were (I'm working on it), but it is rich nonetheless. Why go through life looking at the imperfect when there is so much awesome?

We are studying Joseph Prince's book 100 Days of Favor in my Bible study. Loving the study. There's nothing like meditating on God's favor -- His unmerited favor -- His grace that is bestowed upon us undeservedly. Ahhhh, truth. Yesterday's subject was the fact that He cares for us intently, detailed, specifically, etc.

We enjoyed meditating on that truth so very much. How amazing to be reminded that He cares about every single detail of our life. EVERYTHING!

Even my pursuit of weight loss. I mean, of course He's concerned about the details. Of course. But He is REALLY interested. We can take comfort in that. Regarding anything and everything. We can rest that He will assist us, He will give us strength, He will bring the answer.

Just let that sink down into your spirit. Don't rush off. Let it become truth to your soul. He cares. He care about everything. He cares about everything that concerns you. He cares about everything that concerns you right now.

Truth. Comforting truth.

Give Him what you are concerned about right now. Receive the comfort He sends.

Enjoy the day!
