What the Lord showed me!

The other night I was out of sorts and on the brink of blowing my top but instead of blowing up I went up stairs and picked up my Bible and I opened up to my favorite Psalm, Psalm 91. and I read the first verse which says

"He who dwells in the secret place of the most High, shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty"

I stopped there for a bit and asked the Lord where the secret place of the Most High is. well I kept on reading but I came back the the first verse and meditated on it for a bit and then asked the Lord again where the secret place of the most High is. Then in a still small voice I heard him say "The Secret place is right in the center of my will. When you are in the center of my will I will overshadow you and nothing can harm you" I was so amazed at the Lords goodness and with that it challenged me to be right in the center of Gods will, which for me right now is living from day to day! Lately I've been looking at what I want to do this summer and next year, and through this the Lord was telling me that I need to trust him with the future and for now just live today!

Isn't the Lord so good?

He Is Faithful!


He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.


I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.

Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.

He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.

Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;

Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.

A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.

Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.

Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;

There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.

For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.

They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.

Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.

Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my

He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honor

With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.
~Psalm 91~

This is one of my favorite psalms. I love the Psalms that talk about God protecting us and Him being near us.

This past weekend has been a struggle spiritually. But the Lord kept reminding me of His Love and his unchanging ways and his omnipresence. It is so good to know that he will NEVER leave me of forsake me! What a loving merciful Father we have! I cannot even begin to describe how wonderful he is to me!!!

I went in for my G1's and failed. but I went in the second time and PASSED. These past few days I've been praying and giving that test to the Lord and trusting him to do his will no matter the out come. when I failed he whispered in my ear "you gave this test to me and said that you would trust me no matter the outcome. Do you still trust me?" and through my disappointment I could answer "Yes Lord I do still trust you". So afterwards we met my older sister in town and so I went with her and did a bit of shopping and then went in again and I PASSED the Lord is so faithful, even when we are not! He is just so amazing I can 't get over it!!!!!!!

Living in The Presence of My Saviour!
