Scripture for Day 9

Peace Fast Day 9: Psalm 29:11 
THE LORDS GIVES STRENGTH TO HIS PEOPLE. THE LORD BLESSES HIS PEOPLE WITH PEACE.


For me, the Word of the day isn't always about learning a new lesson. I find that there are times when I just need something to hold on to - something to remind me of God's higher power. This scripture is meditative. Throughout the day there are so many opportunities to fail - way more than there are to succeed. When faced with one of those times it is helpful to remember that the Lord gives us strength and blesses us with peace, so we don't have to be tempted by fear, hurt and anger. Instead we can hold on to God's mighty word which reminds us to exercise our gifts and believe in the hope He gives not what the world says about us.


Day 10: Psalm 34:14 (can't wait)!
