Words from the Lord

This morning was rough.  5:30 am is not my best time of day.  Thankfully the Lord let my girls fall back asleep from 7:30 to 9ish, during which time I made coffee for me to consume (a first for me) and spent some much needed time with the Lord.  I flipped open my Bible to Psalms and started reading hilighted verses.

Psalm 19:14
       "Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in Your sight, O Lord, my strength and my Redeemer."

That lead to a verse I was required to memorize many years ago while I was on my Teen Missions trip to Iceland.

Isaiah 40:29-31
     "He gives power to the weak, and to those who have no might He increases strength.  Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall, but those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint."

Such perfect words for a day like today - and I can tell you that He kept those promises as I went through the morning!
