August 13, 2019 | Happy Tuesday!

Hello everyone...and a "Happy Tuesday" to you all! What a beautiful new day...here in the Inland Northwest! Every morning...I feel the hand of God, in each brand new day...as He has laid aside our yesterdays, to give us something brand new! Praise Him for that!
Today's Bible verse...from Proverbs 3:5-6 has become another one of my favorites...so I thought I'd share these verses with you today! Every time I read these verses; they always remind me that God is there, to bless us through every effort we put forth...but first, we must take the first step of faith and trust Him...before this can happen.
I will never forget the first time I read these verses, in one of my study Bibles. Instantly, I thought of a checkerboard game...with the black pieces resembling evil, while the red pieces resembled the one who was traveling across the game board of life. With each step we take...we need to be willing to go slow and listen for God's guidance...otherwise, Satan will take control of our piece. Even though it may sometimes take a lot of effort and time to get across...in the end, God will crown our efforts with His success. 
There may be times, when life is a challenge...with struggles all around us; but when we choose to walk through these moments with God; then one thing I KNOW...God will safely take us through the moments; that seem to be surrounding us with evil...to a place...where in the end, we become victorious through Him...so let Him lead the way and guide you through each moment of this day!
I truly pray that you will have a great day...and may you truly feel the presence of One, who is greater than anything that may be attempting to take you down...Amen!
Many blessings on your day!
It's Always & Only Because of Him...
