The sun set and the darkness moved in, but God’s promises stand. I look to the east and see the first light of dawn. Darkness recedes at the presence of morning. Help me to stand on your promises today dear God. Let me not fall prey to the false promises of this world. Give me discernment to see through the facades of beliefs that are empty inside; people who are whitewashed tombs. May I be at peace knowing Jesus; knowing he sacrificed his life to give me eternal life; knowing he freed me from the chains of my sin. Let me this day rest in you dear Lord — rest in knowing my future is secure in you.
For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. – Romans 8:38-39 (NIV)

Just circled back to this at the end of the day. Beautiful and grounding. Thank you.

We drove east on the Interstate before dawn this morning, coming up on a thunderstorm. I’ve never liked driving in the dark – too little seen, too little control. But God. 😊 He reminded me of His gentle presence, His love & protection, and His control.
Oh, giving control to God — that is difficult. In the dark it is hard to see, to have total control, but the promise of dawn is always there; the promise of God’s light.
So much comfort when resting in Him.
Indeed. Praying you’ll feel The peace of Christ surround you this week.
“Darkness recedes at the presence of morning” I LOVE this. Amen and Amen!
Praise God! Blessings.
