My Tea Time With Jesus

Need a Little Encouragement We ALL have those days when we feel a little “less than” – nothing wrong with that! It is quite normal actually. That is why I believe the Lord gave us the bible and all of the verses in it – so that we can learn to look to Him for our peace, comfort, strength, joy… Here are a couple of verses that jumped out at me today that just give me that TOTAL confidence that He IS with me AND YOU!! When I feel like I am letting others down, or have fallen short in something, this verse is what I like to repeat over and over. It is the TRUTH from God, not from my own head and thoughts – but TRUTH we can hold on to and repeat back to God over and over. He IS with us, no matter where we are and or what we are going through – He is here!! Joshua 1:9: “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go.” The days I start out on the “low side” I am ...

Jesus Calling - November 19th Wow - this is perfect for today!! Thank You Lord for this short but spot-on truth today!! This is something that is SO hard to do at times!! Yet, it is something we are told to do over and over again throughout the bible. Trust in the path that the Lord has us on. Follow Him. The BIG thing that seems to be the hardest for me, is the times of "rest". There have been times I KNOW it is the Lord leading me to 'be still and rest'... what do I do?!?! Fill it up with something else! Then, regret it almost immediately. Unbeknownst to me, right around the corner came some circumstance that I REALLY could have used the "rest" to be better able to handle what came my way! Anyway, each and every day, takes a commitment on our part, to get up and say, "Ok Lord, lets do this thing!" and just trust His leading for the day. I pray that you are able to see and hear His promptings for you today. If you are at the edge of a c...

Do You Know Your Purpose? God has a plan and a purpose for each and every one of us, He does! Psalm 57:1-2 1  Have mercy on me, O God, have mercy! I look to You for protection. I will hide beneath the shadow of Your wings until the danger passes by. 2  I cry out to God Most High, to God who will fulfill His purpose for me. Yes, there are dangers out there. Some that seem to chase us on a daily basis LOL Yet, with God in control, we get to cry out to Him for help and hide beneath His wings. Another MEF (mind’s eye flash) happened.      Running in fear close to the edge of a cliff, I am able to stop abruptly, turn and cry to the heavens for God’s help. Instantly, my eyes are opened and I see the HUGE angels surrounding me, protecting me. I sense the “covering” of something peaceful, pure, safe. As I blink my eyes to what I see, I look up and the blue sky is hidden by a soft veil of what appears to be feathers. They are solid yet sheer....
