"Inspirations for You"

Finding A Resting Place
Are you finding life's situations disturbing and maybe you need somewhere to hide – so to speak? Are you hiding yourself in your work or your room or even pleasure? Hide yourself in God and He will take care of you. Each day, take a little time to come aside with Him and rest – do nothing but relax with Him and fix your focus on
Him and you together and you will find comfort and strength in that quiet still place. This is the sure place of refuge that scripture speaks about – it will become your haven of rest. In all life's situations you can go there and find rest for your soul.
He will take care of you and you will find rest from work because you cease from your labors and your mind is in rest mode. Your room will become a place of peace instead of unrest with disturbing thoughts – your emotions become healthier because you've found a better place of retreat. You cease to be a slave to pleasure because you will find true pleasure: a place of wholeness instead of addiction to happiness and a place of Joy that is independent of circumstances.
Hiding yourself in your work, your room or pleasure leads to imbalances you don't want, and can sometimes be upsetting to your love ones, because they feel left out
or maybe they are really concerned for you.
God says that His ways are a refuge for us – that give us wisdom and strength in life's situations – His Presence is a sure place of refuge. We need a balance of both. Make that your solution in this time of need. First, start with His Presence –
you can't go wrong – you will become a truly wise person and you will find
the answers to your needs for He may even speak to you.
Whatever, you will find comfort for He is a sure solace.

Sometimes thoughts can be running through our minds that
are not true of God or us...others or situations. The following
words help us to keep a check on this in the words we speak
and hear as well resulting in happier hearts and lives.
Keeping above Things
You can rise and fall with your words
so let them be wholesome and true
They can lift your feelings or bring them down
look to Jesus and make a new sound
Joy in His Words, the best I have heard.
Let them give you a lift and make you fit
for life's situations, this is true salvation
from day to day along life's way
there is Saving Grace and a sure solace.
Think of those things that are lovely and wise
if you do you'll experience a nice surprise.
Whatever is of a good report
those are the things that should be sought.
In conversation give resignation
to things that weigh you down.
Yes make a new sound
Let there be Joy and Laughter
not just in the here-after
But have some today
it's free without pay.

Comfort Is
Comfort is knowing that He really Cares
our Gracious God and Savior
we're in His Favor
freely given in Jesus Name
knowing He's ever always the same
Yesterday, Today and Forever.
He becomes your sweetest treasure
is to steady your eyes on Him
letting your spirit be filled to the brim.
It's to be found in His Grace
a sure solace, when you seek His Face.
Trusting in the Goodness of God
when walking on this earthly sod.
Yes this is the essence of true Comfort
finding yourself in the Presence of God
and Resting in His Love.

Rest Is
Rest is found in His Presence Divine
it's just like when the weather is fine.
Not letting your thoughts or feelings get out of line
this is to be blessed with Rest.
Rest is knowing the Peace that comes with Trust_
Trusting in His Goodness
Trusting in His Grace
Trusting in His Ability
Knowing He's there, our God who Cares.
In this Rest you find Strength
in this Rest you find Comfort.
Placing yourself in the Hand of God
Resting your cares on Him.
