a warm blanket for your soul


From time to time, 
you might need a warm blanket for your soul.
Chocolate does the trick. 
Sometimes. 
But it doesn't last
(and the dentist bills are no fun). 

Busy schedules, on occasion, 
might seem to fill the gap
that your soul is feeling.
But then too much of too much
leaves you weary and worn.
And still needing that blanket.

And after all the stuff,
the noise,
is gone...
that longing is still there. 
That need to be filled
and known.
To be reassured that
you are 
enough,
loved,
worthy.

Need a warm blanket today?
Wrap yourself in God's Word. 
Psalm 23 is a great place to start.

God is everything you need. 
Everything.
He is truth.
He is taking care of you.
Even when things are scary and uncertain,
He's not scared. 
And He knows what's coming next.
That downcast face 
that stares at you from the mirror 
from time to time?
God is lifting your head.
And He will pursue you
with His beauty and love. 
Today.
And every day.
Count on it.

Count on Him.

Let your soul wrap up in that today.


Many blessings,
Deni
