The news she got today, how does she make sense of whats happening, trying to hold it together, when she feels like shes falling apart.she falls to her knees, unsure of what to say, overwhelmed and afraid, she just calls out his name...Jesus im falling apart, not sure where to start, to pick up the pieces and begin again.Another loss, more tears, can you relate to her fears? You know, you've gone through it too, whether a job loss, health that's failing or a broken family torn in two.You feel like none wants to listen.
On her knees, in the silence , sitting there, holding onto what little thread of hope she thinks there is.Calm my spirit Lord, hear my pleas, hold me together before i fall apart.. then she feels his hand on her spirit saying my child i know, i have not left you alone.id never leave you when you need me most, i wont just hold you together, ill hold you still and fill you with my peace, peace like the calmness, peace that passes all your human understanding.He didn't come in a loud voice,no miraculous miracle right away, but all the same he came to me that day and spoke in a gentle whisper. a gentle whisper, a still small voice, and when we feel like were running on empty, he fills up with himself!

Lord You are my Portion, My All in All!
Lord You are my portion.Read that again and let those words soak into your spirit.Psalm 16:5 says this
The Lord is my chosen portion and my cup; you hold my lot.The lines have fallen for me in pleasant places indeed, i have a beautiful inheritance.What comfort in the scriptures we find.We can always rest assured that when life's struggles happen we can turn to The scriptures to find the answers, the wisdom they hold.
When you feel like God has forgotten you, or does not care, remember that you are His beloved and he cares for his children, so much he desires to bless us, to have us take part in whats in store for thsoe who love him.This life is a vapor, fragile gift that can be gone tomorrow.But what is promised us, what is coming, is not something we have to work towards, or can loose, its ours because we are his children, and He wants whats best for his child.. you!
As i reread Psalm 16;5 i was drawn to the word MY. how its used in this scripture text.Our part in what He provides.The Lord is all i need, all i desire.He alone is the Only one who can fill us up completely.The way the scripture text is, makes it very personable.Yes there are different meanings for the word portion found in scripture.
As His beloved Children we have that assurance of our reward, for our faithfulness,our secure place with him in Eternal glory forever and always!Our Inheritance. one that cannot be taken.So try putting your name in these scriptures, make them personal, connect with what the write is saying and know that all scripture that is written is God breathed, so its from his deep and genuine love for us!
