Trust Me
“Trust Me, My child,” He says. “Trust Me with a fuller abandon than you ever have before. Trust Me, as minute succeeds minute, every day of your life, for as long as you live. And if you become conscious of anything hindering our relationship, do not hurt Me by turning away from Me. Draw all the closer to Me, come, run to Me. Allow Me to hide you, to protect you, even from yourself. Tell Me your deepest cares, your every trouble. Trust Me to keep My hand upon you. I will never leave you. I will shape you, mold you, and perfect you. Do not fear, O child of My love, do not fear. I love you.” Your Father (By Amy Carmichael).
Earlier this month, , I encouraged you to make a gift that was “priceless” for someone you loved. Today, I am writing this prayer out for my daughter, Mariah, in calligraphy and framing it for her bedroom. I hope it is one she will read daily and find it to become her own. (Actually, writing this blog is a diversion. I messed up the first one and have to run to Michael’s for more poster board!!)
What ideas have you come up with this season?
Good morining. I love the idea of the framed prayer and reading that prayer this morning certainly gave me courage to walk through this day and into more in the future. Life gets challenging – you know. I am short on material gift ideas, but can always give the gift of time and it seems to be a real hit! Merry Christmas. Oh and please post the framed prayer once you are finished. I would love to see it!
Lynn,
What a beautiful and meaningful gift.
Merry Christmas sweet friend,
Zoe
