Psalm 16:11 ‘You will show me the path of life; in Your Presence is fullness of joy.’ When we set the Lord always before us and in every area (vs 8 ) , we can expect the goodness and joy and presence of God to be actively involved in our lives.

Words for Today
1. When you hear a truth or something that is encouraging, it is an invitation for you to also experience the same. Take one step in that direction and see what God does.
2. Testimony of God healing back and knee pain and feet numbness! Release of prayer for biopsy results to be negative and high blood pressure to decrease. And confirmation that partnering with God with healthy food and exercise is important.
3. Take a step of faith to imagine and dream BIG,even beyond what you can accomplish yourself, or even feel comfortable with. You will see it when God brings the dream to life.

5. Family connections, again!! Prayerfully take a step and a risk, see what God might do.
6. Often we look toward a direction with hope and expectation, and at times that leaves us feeling disappointed. The next step is always crucial: it will be toward connection or disconnection. Keep the Lord always before you, stay in community, receive faith even when you don’t understand.
7. Instead of being drawn into anxiety or worry, look instead for the situation to actually be the grounds where God demonstrates His power and goodness.
