Looking Up from the Bottom



"There is a bottom. A brokenness that's neccessary. A need that can only be met with a surrender before the miracle can begin. Praying now that this is as deep as it has to be for them. Praying for wisdom, strength, resolve, and most of all total surrender!!!"

I just sent that text message to a friend in response to a pray request, but then God prompted my heart to more, and that there is someone else he...re whose loved ones are in jeopardy and you are crying out on their behalf, or you may be crying out for yourself...

**Brokenness: forcibly separated into two or more pieces; fractured; with gaps and errors, weakened and infimed; bankrupt, crushed

If that means something to you reading this I have prayed for you, or for that loved one that it speaks to. God moves the most in response to the most surrender - when you give Him that which you admit you can no longer fix yourself.

Isaiah 57:15 The high and lofty one who lives in eternity, the Holy One, says this: "I live in the high and holy place with those whose spirits are contrite and humble. I restore the crushed spirit of the humble and revive the courage of those with repentant hearts.

God's biggest miracles come from true repentence in the midst of our biggest brokeness :)

Feeling Anxious?

Isaiah 42:16
I will lead blind Israel down a new path,
guiding them along an unfamiliar way.
I will brighten the darkness before them
and smooth out the road ahead of them.
Yes, I will indeed do these things;
I will not forsake them.

Anxious about what you cant see around the corner?
Gods promise stands true and ready to be fulfilled - just as He led Israel out of the wilderness, He will lead us down a path unknown only us to what goodness He has waiting!

Joyful on the Journey
