Bible Verse of The Day – 4-3-25

Ecclesiastes 3:4 (NKJV) 4 A time to weep, And a time to laugh; A time to mourn, And a time to dance…

When someone passes from our life, we will feel the bond that we had with them break. It will leave a place inside us that is empty.

We will feel it.

That does not mean that it will remain empty. That empty feeling is there only a short while until it is filled again.

How long that spot remains empty depends solely on us.

The one thing we need to be sure of is that we don’t let that empty spot be filled with the wrong thing.

Sometimes bitterness and anger will try to fill it up quickly. But know that it is not what God wants for us.

When we cry out for His help, He will fill that emptiness once again with the things we love. He knows us better than we know ourselves, so trust Him. He will get it right if we follow His leading.

If you are struggling today with emptiness because of someone you have lost, and you don’t know what to do or how to handle it, please join me in this prayer.

Dear God,

You know the pain and emptiness that I feel every day. It’s so big right now. I am not even able to help myself. I really don’t know what to do with it. Please help me to get past this feeling. I need Your strength to get through it. Help me to mourn, and to push through this pain.

I ask You today for help. I want to laugh and dance again!

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 4-2-25

Isaiah 55:9 (NKJV) 9 “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways, And My thoughts than your thoughts.

We recently took a trip back to RI and CT to see family that we had not seen in quite some time.

The flight from NC to CT was extremely late at night. And the plane was full.

As most planes are, the seats on this one were tight to sit in and it offered little in the way of comfort. Pastor Ellie ended up sitting across the aisle from me and had struck up a lively conversation with two other ladies in that row, so I just hunkered down and listened to some music for the short 90-minute flight.

While we were jetting through the skies at 30,000 feet, with darkness all around us, I began to ponder various things of God.

Being in the sky led me to think about the bigness of God, and how small everything else is when compared to Him.

And this is something that most of us fail to comprehend in its fullness. The earth is big. The skies are even bigger. And when we consider the depth of the universe, it boggles our minds.

But God is bigger than all those things. He is the Creator of them all!

He simply had to speak words to make it all happen and come together in perfect unity and balance.

And yet, despite all that, He loves us and cares for us more than we can fathom.

And because He loves us so immensely, He redeemed us from our sinful selves by the blood of Christ, God incarnate.

He did that for you, and for me.

Why?

Because of his immense, unfathomable love for us. A love that our human minds cannot comprehend, nor can we accurately emulate.

So, if you are struggling today, if you are feeling alone, if you are down, if you are walking through a tough season, ponder on this incredible love that is bigger than we will ever fully know.

And understand that His love for you is that big.

Bible Verse of The Day – 4-1-25

Isaiah 26:3 (NKJV) 3 You will keep him in perfect peace, Whose mind is stayed on You, Because he trusts in You.

We must keep our mind on Him.

As soon as we take our mind off Him, the cares of the world will grip us. And we will feel trapped, stuck, suffocated, and heavy.

His burden is light. As we rest (trust) in Him, He will keep us in perfect peace.

Matthew 11:30 (NKJV) 30 For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”

Are we a worrier, always trying to fix things and figure things out? We must work hard at keeping our minds fixed or stayed on Him.

Get in His word. Get in His presence through prayer. Then we will have His peace, His direction, and His way.

Philippians 4:7 (NKJV) 7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
