SMALL STRAWS IN A SOFT WIND BY MARSHA BURNS:
The corrections that you made in your life will serve you well in the days ahead. It might have been stressful, but you will not regret it. The hardest part is over and you can forge ahead with greater confidence and strength, says the Lord.

Philippians 3:13-14 Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.

December 4, 2023. Did you know that you can train yourself not to react quickly? By exercising the gift of self-control, things won’t blurt out of your mouth uncontrollably. You have been used to responding to people and sometimes it’s with a negative attitude. The old adage “count to ten” before responding has wisdom in it. Pause before you speak, check your attitude. You will not be controlled by your emotions unless you allow it.

James 1:19-20 “Understand this, my dear brothers and sisters! Let every person be quick to listen, slow to speak, slow to anger. For human anger does not produce God’s righteousness.”

Hebrews 5:14 “But solid food is for the mature, who because of practice have their senses trained to discern good and evil.” Robin Robinson Bohlin

December 4, 2023. Many around you have forgotten Me. They have forgotten that My ways are pure. Living in accordance with My Word opens the door to allow Me to intervene on your behalf. I open the windows of heaven to those who trust Me enough to surrender everything to Me. I Am that I Am. I will never leave you and I will never disappoint you. Open the door and allow Me to demonstrate My power and love for you!

Isaiah 45:8 “Let the heaven above be glad and let the clouds sprinkle righteousness! Let the earth arise and burst forth mercy! And let righteousness burst forth together! I am the LORD, the One creating you.” Jonas Bohlin
