Psalms 18:1-2
I will love thee, O LORD, my strength. The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower.
With all that can be thrown in our path through our live one thing is certain, when all else fails us the Lord will never fail us or leave us. He will uphold us and give us strength to carry us through whatever we face.
Have a Blessed day!

Matthew 5:16
Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
James 1:17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.
I know from experience how easy it can be for us to shut others from our heart to avoid hurt. I went through heartbreaking trials in 2020 with the loss of my hearing, my husband, and my church family. After those incidents I found it hard to be open and trusting of others. When we do this, we are closing ourselves off to receiving love and companionship from those who want to be part of our lives. God did not make us to be alone but to commune with others. God desires for us to be happy and without love and companionship we cannot be completely content and happy. I still carry a fear others may hurt me but little by little I am opening my heart more and in so doing I find blessings I never would have had if I had left my heart closed off from those who wanted to love and care for me. My prayer for you today is that you find the courage to open your heart up to the blessings the Lord has in store for you. Trust Him to bring people into your life that will be good and right for you. The Lord heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds. (Psalm 147:3) He loves you and He has blessings waiting in store for you. All you need to do is open your heart and receive those blessings.
God Bless You Always!

Pleasant words are as an honeycomb, sweet to the soul, and health to the bones.
Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.
Regrets
Sometimes I wish I could turn back the clock of time
Back to the day before I gave in to Satan’s lie
Yet there is no going back, no returning to a past day
For time marches on despite what my heart may say
Only God holds time within His hand
Only He can change what should have been
We are not the keeper of our time on earth
Our days were allotted from the day of our birth
So many regrets I cannot say
Only through God do I find a brighter day
Though I remember all the sorrows of my past
from him those memories are forever cast
He puts them into the sea of forgetfulness
As to Him I repent from their heaviness
His forgiveness washes me whiter than snow
And cleans up my heart and my soul
In Him time marches on to brighter days
New days given by the maker of all things
For in Him my past slips away
And my heart again finally sings

Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.
Genesis 22: 14 KJV And Abraham called the name of that place Jehovah-Jireh: as it is said to this day, In the mount of the LORD it shall be seen.
Jehovah-Jireh, God will provide! Even when we are facing the most challenging time of our life just as Moses was in Genesis 22 Jehovah will provide for our need. Whether it be a physical need, an emotional or spiritual need Jehovah-Jireh provides. All we need to do is ask and trust him with our whole heart for He has promised He will not withhold any good thing from His children.
Psalm 84:11 KJV
For the LORD God is a sun and shield: the LORD will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.
