“When my way seems too hard, Lord, it really isn’t. You are with me. When my load feels too heavy, it’s not. You carry it. When my heart feels like it’s breaking into pieces, it isn’t. You are molding me. When I feel overwhelmed by the pressures of life, I’m really not. I’m at rest in you. You keep me in perfect peace when I trust in you, when all of my thoughts are fixed upon you. Letting go of who I have always believed myself to be, I reach for who you have created me to be. Starved for lasting joy and peace, I’m now ready to reach for the life and purpose you have chosen for me. Moving to the edge of what I have never had the courage to allow, I launch into the depths of what has been my uncertainty. One breath and one moment at a time, you form me, you fire me, and you fill me.”

An excerpt from the devotion, Great is His Faithfulness, from Form Me, Fire Me, Fill Me

...His mercy forgives again and again. It never focuses on loss. It focuses on the joyful expectation of His promise. He loves you. He wants you to experience the healing of His presence. He waits to be invited. If you allow His love into your life, His promises become your inheritance. His Word offers a fresh perspective, and you experience the truth that His mercy is new each morning. Open your heart. Without hesitation, place your hope in Him.

The Lord is good to those who depend on him, to those who search for him. (Lamentations 3:25 NLT)

He will not fail the trust you place in Him. Great is His faithfulness to you....
