I love this time of the year because the markets are full of sunflowers!
They are also full of Dahlias and Zinnias, too!
You are my hiding place;
you will protect me from trouble
and surround me with songs of deliverance.
Psalm 32:7
"Then the man and his wife heard the sound of the Lord God as he was walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and they hid from the Lord God among the trees of the garden. But the Lord God called to the man, 'Where are you?' "
Genesis 3:8-9
"When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, 'I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.' "
John 8:12
From dark to light....walk in the light!

NOTE: Sorry about the mistake in yesterday's scriptures. I must have been having a "Martha" moment! I made the necessary correction. YIKES!
Until next time...

"He says, 'Be still, and know that I am God;
I will be exalted among the nations,
I will be exalted in the earth.' "
I will be exalted among the nations,
I will be exalted in the earth.' "
Psalm 46:10
"She had a sister called Mary, who sat at the Lord’s feet listening to what he said. But Martha was distracted by all the preparations that had to be made. She came to him and asked, 'Lord, don’t you care that my sister has left me to do the work by myself? Tell her to help me!'
'Martha, Martha,' the Lord answered, 'you are worried and upset about many things, but few things are needed—or indeed only one. Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her.' "
Luke 10:39-42
"For God is not the author of confusion but of peace, as in all the churches of the saints."
1 Corinthians 14:33 (NKJV)
Are you more like Martha or Mary? I am definitely more like Martha, but I'm trying very hard to be more like Mary. I want to please Jesus by choosing better!
Until next time...
Blessings!

"But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong."
2 Corinthians 12:9-10
" ‘For in him we live and move and have our being.’ As some of your own poets have said, ‘We are his offspring.’ "
Acts 17:28
"So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live your lives in him, rooted and built up in him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness."
Colossians 2:6-7
"On that day you will realize that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I am in you."
John 14:20
All of us have been through unanticipated difficulties since Mid-March. However, we have also experienced blessings, too. My prayer today is that we are all made stronger (especially in our faith) through the power of Jesus Christ!
Until next time...
Blessings!

Can you believe it's September already?
I have made it through one month of posting the devo scriptures.
I appreciate your comments, and I hope that these little posts are an encouragement to you because y'all have certainly encouraged me!
"But if from there you seek the Lord your God, you will find him if you seek him with all your heart and with all your soul."
Deuteronomy 4:29
Deuteronomy 4:29
"Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful."
Hebrews 10:23
"The Lord watches over all who love him,
but all the wicked he will destroy."

Isn't it comforting to know that today, September 1, 2020, and everyday the Lord our God is faithful to lovingly watch over us? Bad days, good days, and all those in between? Yes, it is!
Until next time...
Blessings!
