leaning into Him and His promises...

Watching a loved one struggle... tempted to be pulled under with him... offers opportunities... to lean into Him... and His promises...

So far... finding Him trustworthy and sure... with the testing... and practice... of His Word...

Finding peace... in response to giving thanks...

Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation,

by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving,

present your requests to God. And the peace of God,

which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts

and your minds in Christ Jesus.

Philippians 4:6-7 NIV

...leads me to trust the surety... of His other promises...

God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond 

your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide 

the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.

1 Corinthians 10:13 ESV

And we know that for those who love God all things

work together for good, for those who are called

according to his purpose.

Romans 8:28 ESV

"I will never leave you nor forsake you."

Hebrews 13:5 ESV

Lord... thank You... for the opportunity to lean into You...

and Your promises... Thank You for Your faithfulness...
