Philippians 4:13
Jeremiah 29:11
Joshua 1:9
These are just a few of the scriptures that we have leaned upon and clung to since we began this journey. And let me add, this is just the beginning. We still have a ways to go - as should be expected. But as we celebrate a win (2 actually:)) like a coaching family does on Saturdays, I am filled with such gratitude and overwhelmed with emotion. This morning I delight in these Psalms of praise:
Psalm 145:13 The Lord is faithful in all His word and kind in all His works.
Psalm 147:5 Great is our Lord, and abundant in power; His understanding is beyond measure.
Psalm 148:13 Let them praise the name of the Lord! for His name alone is exalted...
Oh I could just go on and on...
I do need to share that while I am VERY grateful for the victories, the heart of my praise, however, is for how Jesus has never left us - and He never will. His presence has been ever so real since day 1 (February 11, 2011). The heart of my praise is out of gratitude that I have been discipled by many who have shown me how to dig deep into God's Word. It's with humility that He would love me enough to still comfort me when I question. It's thankfulness that we can go on and His mercies are new EVERY morning. Sorrow may last or a night, but Joy comes in the morning! Praise the Lord!
Monday is a new day, and there is MUCH work to still be done. But today we celebrate - victory on the field and victory in Jesus!!
Matthew 19:26
Jesus looked at them and said,
"With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible."
