Today’s Scripture
To the Pure and Shining One. King David’s melody of love’s celebration. I stand silently to listen for the one I love, waiting as long as it takes for the Lord to rescue me. For God alone has become my Savior. He alone is my safe place; his wrap-around presence always protects me. For he is my champion defender; there’s no risk of failure with God. So why would I let worry paralyze me, even when troubles multiply around me? But look at these who want me dead, shouting their vicious threats at me! The moment they discover my weakness they all begin plotting to take me down. Liars, hypocrites, with nothing good to say. All of their energies are spent on moving me from this exalted place. Pause in his presence I am standing in absolute stillness, silent before the one I love, waiting as long as it takes for him to rescue me. Only God is my Savior, and he will not fail me. For he alone is my safe place. His wrap-around presence always protects me as my champion defender. There’s no risk of failure with God! So why would I let worry paralyze me, even when troubles multiply around me? God’s glory is all around me! His wrap-around presence is all I need, for the Lord is my Savior, my hero, and my life-giving strength. Join me, everyone! Trust only in God every moment! Tell him all your troubles and pour out your heart-longings to him. Believe me when I tell you—he will help you! 
Psalm 62:1-8

Today’s Thought
Never let worries or anxiety paralyze you because God is bigger than it all… Trust His abilities to help you no matter what and remember that His wrap-around presence is always with you leading you out of all your troubles.

Today’s Confession
Thank you, Jesus, for always leading me out of all my troubles. I put my trust in you today and know that you and your ability both are greater than anything I might face in life. Thank you for always being with me and never leaving or forsaking me.
