The Wind

My heart is heavy today because of some family situations. I decided to sit by the lake this morning to spend some time with my Jesus reading and praying. I wrote down some of the things weighing on my mind and still felt very overwhelmed. As I put my head back against the chair, this beautiful breeze began to blow. I can't really explain it, but it was like The Lord just said it will all be ok and the wind just took away my concerns.

As my eyes filled with tears, I praised my Heavenly Father for being perfect in everything we are faced with on this earth. I still don't have any idea how this situation is going to work out, but He is sovereign through it all. Having his precious peace wash over me was just a small reminder of that. 

Allow Him to be the provider of your peace today (and every day). Lean into Him. He wants to carry the burdens for you. It's why He died for us and was resurrected. He loved us that much. He wants to spend eternity with us. 

I am so blessed and thankful my life belongs to Him.


Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight. Proverbs 3:5-6
