Me? Moping? Devotional (Words from the Lord series)

by Marijo Phelps⁽¹⁷⁹⁾ Red Star

Child, sometimes you mope around too much when you should be rejoicing. Look not with your natural eyes but see the situation through my Spirit.

The wisdom of the world is indeed foolishness unto Jesus: let that lift you up.

When your eyes see discouragement in the natural KNOW that things are not as they appear and REJOICE!! Selah

1 Corinthians 3:19
For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, "He catches the wise in their own craftiness" (NKJV)

Isaiah 55:8
"For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways," says the LORD. (NKJV)

Ruth 3:18
Then she said, "Sit still, my daughter, until you know how the matter will turn out; for the man will not rest until he has concluded the matter this day." (NKJV)

Psalm 46:10
Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth! (NKJV)

Prayer: Dear Jesus, what better place to be than STILL before you. Please help me to stop wiggling, to trust, and to know, my natural eyes sometimes mislead. Thank you for loving me enough to be persistent with me. AMEN

Oh yes! A good devotional! One that I could well use for my quiet time. I do have a couple of suggestions. Take them or leave them:

"The wisdom of the world is indeed foolishness unto Jesus let that lift you up"

It sesms to me that this good sentence is either 2 sentences -- or that there should be a semicolon between Jesus & let. What do you say?

"When your eyes see discouragement in the natural KNOW that things are not as they appear and REJOICE!! Selah"

We need a comma between natural & KNOW.

Keep up the good work, Marijo.

Love, Esther J
