Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. ~ Matthew 11:28

Trust in him at all times, O people; pour out your hearts to him, for God is our refuge. ~ Psalm 62:8

I'm keeping my eyes on Him even though what's going on around me seems overwhelming at times. May I always be looking for strength, peace, and rest from Him (vertically), instead of making sense of our circumstances through what I can see around me (horizontally).

I believe, God, that you can do the impossible. I know that You have in the past and You will continue to demonstrate Your love and faithfulness in this fallen world for as long as it exists. My heart is open to You as completely as I know how. Change me. Transform me. Empty me of me so that You can do Your work in this world. Fill me. I am not scared of Your plan for me. I am yours.
