Fears and Tears

Prayer

  • He restores my soul

    The Lord is my shepherd; there is nothing I lack. In green pastures he makes me lie down; to still waters he leads me; He restores my soul. He guides me along right paths for the sake of his name. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear…

  • My Joy

    I have been thinking a lot about my kids. Yes, I call them kids, however they are all adults in their twenties. They are so loved and in my heart. My joy is listening to them play a board game while laughing on a Sunday afternoon. My joy is watching them interact and tease each…

  • Return to Me

    When I was on vacation a few years ago, I would take walks around the area and through a new neighborhood where everything was in order and in its place.

  • My Daughter

    The Lord is always speaking, and it is amazing to me. Especially when I am aware of His loving presence. He is always there, I am the one that turns my gaze elsewhere. The Lord lifts me in encouragement when His words touch my heart. “I love you, my daughter.” Simple words that give me…

  • Rest

    My soul is restless until it rests in You. St. Augustine Come away and find a quiet place of rest – to not “do” but just “be.” Let the silence envelop you, as it calls you to go deeper within yourself. To cast off the worries of the world and to listen to the inmost…

  • Nothing is Impossible for God

    “Amen, I say to you, if you have faith the size of a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, move from here to there and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.” Matthew 17:20 I bring the Lord what I have, my prayer; a tiny mustard seed in the palm of…
