Week 24
God, what guidance do you have for me today?
Be well, today.
To be well is a matter
of faith, knowing
that I am with you in all of
your circumstances,
and that my love
is always flowing to you
wherever you go.
Let your soul be well
regardless of the state of your
physical body
or present life challenges.
Be well today.
Give all concerns to me and trust.
Can you do this, today?
Week 24
Evening Reflection
It continues to amaze me (but not surprise me) how these daily guidances play out in the course of the day. Though deeply personal, I am constantly awed at the way they are not just for me.
I received a phone call from someone who was afraid. He was in the midst of a great transition and feared for the future. He was concerned about how he would make it in life, earn a living and wondered whether he would ever feel settled again. During the conversation I was guided to offer the encouragement to be well and that God was with him in his circumstances. I suggested he give it all to God and trust.
Trust is a precious thing. And it need not be a blind trust. I helped the man to remember some past challenges that resolved positively and recall how those things were worked out. I helped him remember past victories, which helps strengthen trust and allows one to move forward in faith; to forge ahead into the unknown.
We prayed and thanked God for the remembered blessings. We ended with “Thy will be done.” To give it all to God is not always easy. But to the extent one can do it peace can replace fear.
How did you do with being well, today?
