One day at a time.

Sometimes the greastest blessings can come in little snipetts. Kay Arthur gives me encouragement each day through a flip book, and I cannot recant the many times that her encouragment and truth has hit right on! (LOVE when the Big Guy does that!)

Thought I'd share an entry of hers from January 15th, which came in perfect timing.

"Commit your way to the Lord, trust also in Him, and He will do it." Ps 37:5

Her thoughts: O Beloved, the will of God is simply that you submit yourself to Him each day and say, "Father, Your will for today is mine. Your pleasure for today is mine. Your work for today is mine." Take one day at a time. "Tomorrow will care for itself" (Matt 6:34). And remember, He is God over all your tomorrows.

Beautiful. And valuable for a girl leaving on a trip in two weeks who is currently struggling with time management. It reminds me that each day belongs to the Lord- it's His. It begins and ends with Him. It surrenders and lets go to Him. It loves and outpours of Him. It steals away and rests in Him. It is the same today in Telford, as it will be in Turrialba, Costa Rica. A day at a time.

Thank God for that. :)
