Beloved–
At what I would describe as my first real life crisis as a young Christian, scripture prevented me from sinking into despair. From my point of view there was no possible solution to the crisis. I had been praying and doing my daily reading but one problem after another kept occurring; I didn’t think I could physically survive.
It was the one and only time the Lord spoke to me directly when I randomly opened my Bible. It opened in Isaiah, chapter 26. Verse 3 starts with “God will keep in perfect peace all those whose thoughts are fixed on him…”
Ever since that day no matter what the situation from the driver who cut me off, to the loss of employment, to a child with cancer, to my present infirmity that memorized scripture always gives me peace of mind and heart.
I pray for you daily that God”s word will speak to your heart and that you too, will be comforted in your times of crisis.
Luv Ya!
