Day 16: The Violin Paradise

Copyright © 2016 by Michelle Lores

             

 

A violin is playing—

The strings are so nice—

Carrying me far away

To my own little paradise.

 

Butterflies are floating

On a breeze way up high.

The breeze is rustling the leaves in the trees,

Causing me to sigh.

 

Bees are buzzing

And making their honey.

The bluebirds are singing

With no thoughts of money.

 

I come back to the present

And see that I too—

Have no need to worry,

For Lord, I have You.

 

        

 

“Father, thank You that there is no need to worry.  You have it all covered.  And most importantly, You have me covered by Your blood.

I have been washed and made new by You.  Thank You, Father.

It is so easy to start worrying—but there is so much to be thankful for.

And when I stop and be still, I realize that You are God and You are in control.

There is never a reason to fear, for nothing can happen to me or my loved ones without going through You first.

When I worry about my past, I just need to stop and say,

          

 

‘The past is covered,

And the future is waiting,

So I will face forward

And keep looking up

As I continue to walk with You today.’

 

        

 

“Father, thank You that You care about me.

I love You so much, and I know that because You are on my side, I need not fear what man can do to me—or any other force—for You have overcome it all.

Oh, Lord, I love You.  Thank you so much for loving me and for showing me more of Your Love each day.

Your grace amazes me, Lord.  The grace You give me allows me to live a life that is beautiful to You, for it is Your grace that helps in my time of need that You tell me to ask for before Your throne with confidence (Hebrews 4:16).

I love You, Lord.

In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”

 

      

What is my cup of SonShine today?

To not worry, but to come to my caring Heavenly Father who loves me and to let Him know my requests while I give Him thanks.

And He has promised to replace my worry and stress with a peace that is beyond understanding—a peace that only comes from God (Philippians 4:6-7).

 

“I love You, Lord.  Thank You for taking the worries of today, and thank You for giving me peace.

In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
