Remember This My Heart.....

“Now it is God who makes both us and you stand firm in Christ. He anointed us, set His seal of ownership on us, and put His Spirit in our hearts as a deposit guaranteeing what is to come.”
2 Corinthians 1:21-22

We can experience sadness, grief and brokenness. Then we remember we can trust our God.
“Trust in Him at all times, O people; pour out your heart to Him, for God is our refuge.” Psalm 62:8

We have indecision over the direction our life should take. Then we remember God’s plan is perfect.
“For I know the plans that I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope.” Jeremiah 29:11

We have a bad report from the doctor and know that it is going to take every ounce of strength we have to carry on. Then we remember God is our strength.
"The LORD is my strength and my shield; My heart trusts in Him, and I am helped; Therefore my heart exults, And with my song I shall thank Him.” Psalm 28:7

We face an enemy once again with no relief in sight. Then we remember that God is our refuge.
"Deliver me, O LORD, from my enemies; I take refuge in You."  Psalm 143:9

We look at ourselves and believe we are not good enough for the task.  Then we remember that we are God’s workmanship.
"We are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” Ephesians 2:10

We are convicted when the thoughts in our hearts are wrong. Then we remember that God is willing to change that.
"Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me." Psalm 51:10

Remember this, my heart.....
“Now it is God who makes both us and you stand firm in Christ. He anointed us, set His seal of ownership on us, and put His Spirit in our hearts as a deposit guaranteeing what is to come.”
2 Corinthians 1:21-22
