And David was greatly distressed; for the people spake of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was grieved, every man for his sons and for his daughters: but David encouraged himself in the LORD his GOD.

[1 Samuel 30:6]

Encourage Yourself!

Good Afternoon Beloved,

Ever had a day like that one… well, this is the day the Lord has made! Happy Friday!!!… Oh my goodness the forecast is looking a little crazy DC/Metro. 15 Inches of snow are you serious?! You know we shut down after 3 inches! LOL!…. Today, the thought hit me that somebody may feel a little under-appreciated, a little taken for granted… undervalued… well… I got a Word for you… encourage yourself. I suspect that more people appreciate you than you even know about…. (me for one… I appreciate you… seriously I really do). But even when you’re confronted with the feeling, you have the ability to encourage yourself in the Lord. Remind yourself that you are fearfully and wonderfully made… That you are a child of the Most High God with vision, purpose and destiny. That God has invested treasure in your earthen vessel. You are the apple of His eye and He loves you beyond comprehension. Your are not just loved, but greatly beloved and part of the Royal Family of the ages. Greatness is on you and within you. Am I trying to “pump you up”?… maybe…is it working? Well, it just so happens to be true. We are complex individuals… servants, children, royal heirs, vessels all of that rolled into one. God’s very own…
