This morning when I read Psalm 121 and prayed for different ones I didn't realize how much I myself was going to need Psalm 121 today. What a tough day but I am thankful the Lord was with me every step of the way. This morning as I received some tough news the Lord brought to my lips Chris Tomlin's "I Will Rise." "Theres a peace I've come to know; Though my heart and flesh may fail; There's an anchor for my soul; I can say 'It is well'..." Thank You Jesus for the reminder of You being my peace in such a trying time. Thank You Lord for allowing me to have my emotional melt-down and then giving me strength to carry on with my day. I also want to thank You, Lord, for giving me Sanctus Real's song "Promises" as I drove home this afternoon.
Dear Jesus,
I am holding onto Your promises on this roller coaster of life. I am claiming Your Peace during times of stress. Thank You Jesus for using music to comfort me today. I praise You, Lord, for giving me Psalm 121 this morning. Father, I am praying Matthew 11:28-29 tonight. "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls." Woo hoo! Thank You Lord for being My Rest! Amen.
2 Peter 1:4
And because of his glory and excellence, he has given us great and precious promises. These are the promises that enable you to share his divine nature and escape the world’s corruption caused by human desires.
Jeremiah 29:11
For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.
Matthew 11:28-29
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
Isaiah 40:29-31
He gives power to the weak and strength to the powerless.
Even youths will become weak and tired, and young men will fall in exhaustion.
But those who trust in the Lord will find new strength. They will soar high on wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not faint.
Even youths will become weak and tired, and young men will fall in exhaustion.

Philippians 4:19
And this same God who takes care of me will supply all your needs from his glorious riches, which have been given to us in Christ Jesus.
Romans 8:37-39
No, despite all these things, overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, who loved us.
And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love. No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Proverbs 1:33
But all who listen to me will live in peace, untroubled by fear of harm.”
John 14:27
“I am leaving you with a gift—peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So don’t be troubled or afraid.
Promises - Sanctus Real
Sometimes it's hard to keep believing
In what you can't see
That everything happens for a reason
Even the worst life brings
If you're reaching for an answer
And you don't know what to pray
Just open up the pages
Let His word be your strength
And hold on to the promises (Hold tight)
Hold on to the promises (Alright)
Jesus is alive so hold tight
Hold on to the promises
All things work for the good
Of those who love God
He holds back nothing that will heal you
Not even His own Son
His love is everlasting
His faithfulness unending
Oh, if God is for us who can be against us
So if you feel weak
Neither life, nor death
Could separate us
From the eternal love
Of our God who saves us
