"Smile big, dress the part, But the eyes betray the heart. Hollow, hollow. Fill it up full of stuff. Has it ever been enough? No, no, no, no. The busyness that I'm excusing Is a drug that I'm abusing, But I don't have to let it rule me." - Myla Smith, "Slow Down"

With so many people to love in my life, Why do I worry about one? But you put the happy in my ness; You put the good times into my fun. And it's so hard to do And so easy to say, But sometimes, sometimes, You have to walk away.

Much Needed Reminders

The Lord is a stronghold for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble.  And those who know Your name put their trust in You, for You, O, Lord, have not forsaken those who seek You. - Psalm 9:9 - 10

The Lord answer you in the day of trouble!  The name of the God of Jacob protect you!  May He send you help from the sanctuary and give you support from Zion.  May He remember all your offerings ... May He grant you your heart's desire and fulfill all your plans.  May we shout for joy over your victory and in the name of our God set up our banners.  May the Lord fulfill all your petitions. - Psalm 20:1 - 5

When the righteous cry for help, the Lord hears and rescues them from all their troubles.  The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit.  Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the Lord rescues them from them all. - Psalm 34:17 - 19

The Lord is near to all who call on Him, to all who call on Him in truth.  He fulfills the desire of all who fear Him; He also hears their cry and saves them. - Psalms 145:18 - 19

Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not rely on your own insight.  In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make straight your paths. - Proverbs 3:5 - 6

We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, who are called according to His purpose. - Romans 8:28

Rejoice in hope, be patient in suffering, persevere in prayer. - Romans 12:12

No testing has overtaken you that is not common to everyone.  God is faithful, and He will not let you be tested beyond your strength, but with the testing, He will also provide the way out so that you may be able to endure it. - 1 Corinthians 10:13

Do not worry about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be known to God.  And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. - Philippians 4:6 - 7

Even though we speak this way, beloved, we are confident of better things in your case, things that belong to salvation.  For God is not unjust; He will not overlook your work and the love that you showed for His sake. - Hebrews 6:9 - 10

And this is the boldness we have in Him, that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us.  And if we know that He hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have obtained the requests made of Him. - 1 John 5:14 - 15
