Day 1

A verse of day is what I am planning on doing. My brother came up with this brilliant idea when me and some of my friends were making scripture jars. He told us that he would go pick out 31 bible verses and we could read 1 a day for about a month. At first I was like well.......... I kind of want to pick out my own verses but as I began to ponder over the idea I realized that maybe I shouldn't pick the bible verses. Maybe I should allow the Lord to speak to me through my brother... maybe I should allow him to pick verses he believes are important. So here I am on day 1 about to begin a month of learning, loving, and adoring my God. I will blog about random days probably about 10! I am excited to see what the Lord is going to do!

DAY 1

"The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life; of whom shall I be afraid Though an army encamp against me, my heart shall not fear; though war rise up against me, yet I will be confident." - Psalm 27:1,3

My immediate thought as I read this verse is the key word CONFIDENCE. So many times in my life I have lacked confidence in God. How could a sinful person like me trust my own plan more than the maker of the earths? As I sit reminiscing on recent circumstances I am very aware of all the ways I have failed at being completely confident in my God. Maybe that is what the Lord is trying to show me.... that I am completely incapable on being totally content and that this world is not my home. As I end this beautiful day I will remember that confidence in GOd means trusting in who he is and what he has in store for me. I am nothing and he is everything. After all this place is just our temporary home. That is all for now.

Until Tomorrow, Hannah
