Proverbs 31 Wannabe

“Seek the Lord and his strength; seek his presence continually!”
‭‭1 Chronicles‬ ‭16‬:‭11‬ ‭ESV‬‬

What is it that anchors you? Who do you go to with all aspects of life? As a believer in Messiah, my first response should be the Lord. But I know that I’m not perfect in this. Sometimes I turn to influencers, or to food, or worse inward. Too often I try to rely on my own understanding of things instead of turning to the One who made everything. This verse is a solid reminder of who we should always turn to. He is our strength!

Lent Day 5

“The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart, O God, you will not despise.”
‭‭Psalm‬ ‭51‬:‭17‬ ‭ESV‬‬

Lent Day 2

I love it when my verse for today happened to correspond with the Lent study I’m doing with my son. We had a great conversation about what contrite meant and how God forgives when we come to Him with all our heart. Great teaching moment 💕

““Is not this the fast that I choose: to loose the bonds of wickedness, to undo the straps of the yoke, to let the oppressed go free, and to break every yoke?”
‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭58‬:‭6‬ ‭ESV‬‬

Today is and the start of the Lenten season of deep prayer 🙏 now is a perfect time to draw back to the Lord in a deep way. I pray that over the next forty days leading up to Holy Week and Easter that we can come together as a community and reflect and draw near to the God who saves.
