Just For Today

Where do I start? My blogs have been few and far between these past several months. It's just a season; and if not for the seasons in our lives, we would live stagnantly. These are the times that God refines us, builds us up and stands back to admire all He's done. When we respond to His work in our lives, His calling, His refining, we become better, stronger and more able to walk fully trusting in Him.

Isn't that what it's all about? Fully trusting in the God who created us, knows the desires of our hearts and provides our every need each day. Isn't that where we find Him most? Having faith in the fact that nothing goes unnoticed, hidden or without His concern. The amazing, awesome God that knows the numbers of hairs on our head, holds onto every tear we have shed and smiles with delight when we giggle is constantly working on and with us to make us better and better ... from glory to glory.

In the midst of this season of my life, God has been refining me - sometimes as I go kicking and screaming - for something greater and more glorious than I can dream. And, while I don't necessarily see the end of this season coming soon, Jesus has faithfully walked with me and talked to me telling me "in due time" I will see the victory. He is building my faith in a way that will stand the test of time and allow me to walk through future seasons stronger, more trusting and with the unwavering assurance that He will never leave my side. The hope that I find in that alone, is enough to carry me through ... just for today.

What is your season? It may be one of triumph and celebration. It may be one of heartache and sadness. It may be just the fact that everything is going along as it always does. You may be on the backside of the season or heading into a new one. No matter what you are experiencing today in your life, one thing is certain - Jesus is right there with you walking with you, talking to you and telling you "in due time" you will see the victory. That hope is enough to carry you through ... just for today.


My Precious Daughter,

Just for today rest in Me. Trust Me for all you need and I will supply everything. Do not tarry on intuition, gut feelings, the thoughts or questions that creep into your mind. Just for today wait on Me, seek My face and sing praises to My name.

I am with you always, beloved. In the depth of the pit and on the highest mountaintop. I have not abandoned nor forsaken you in any circumstance.

Beloved, just for today take Me at My word. Put all your trust into My hands. Have faith in Me - your Creator (Jehovah God), your Abba Father, your All-in-All. Just for today, allow Me to do the work in you life, your situation. Just for today give it all to Me and fix your eyes on high into My throne room of grace. Just for today, dear one, for tomorrow is far off.

Each day you set your mind to do these things will bring you another step closer to your victory. Each moment you make a choice to relinquish control of your life and circumstances to Me is another opportunity for Me to work in you and bring about the desires of your heart. Each time you choose to take your hands off the things you cannot change, allows Me to move freely in those circumstances and bring about My plans, My will.

Just for today, beloved, rest in Me knowing I love you far greater than you can imagine. And, just for today trust that I am working all things out for your good. Just for today, for tomorrow has enough trouble of its own ... just for today.

I am yours, beloved, and you are mine. So, for this day, everything is done, all is well and it is good.

I love you.
