My life sings JOY over Word-Filled Wednesday!!!!
In a world where happiness trumps holiness,where wrong feels right and right is all about feelings,where money, money, moneykeeps us singing, spending, striving,where "enough" is NOTand "plenty" is relative,God's Word interrupts...
Father God, You define enough, and it is You. Thank You for giving us everything that we need for life and for Godliness, and for the working of the Holy Spirit to produce contentment with our circumstances. Lead us to confess our sins, to turn from them, and to surrender our very lives to You this day.
In Your all-sufficient name I pray, Amen.

Amen! That is so soothing. Love the photo and the verse!
Wonderful WFW... I will be back and read more of your blog....
This is a very timely piece of scripture. I pray that perhaps these difficult and uncertain times may bring families back to what is really important this season. This scripture speaks right to that.
And the congregation said, "AMEN"
God is so good. I could write a thousand posts on how He has provided for my family. For example, just the other day my husband and I had 3 couples that are struggling financially put on our hearts and felt led to give them all Publix gift cards.(The same was done for us when my husband was laid off and we were struggling), about 2 hours after deciding this the phone rings and it's my husbands boss asking him if he wanted to work yesterday,(a holiday which means time and a half).So not only did we get our money right back but then some. This is just one of many of how God has provided through us or for us.
Great post my friend and sorry for the lengthy comment!
Hugs.
Amen sweetie.
Amen. You are so right. Praying with you on this one.
Blessings
What price can we put on contentment and peace?
Thanks for the reminder.
Another lovely reminder...I'm visiting people and God is speaking to me through these lovely verses that we are sharing with each other!
Have a blessed Wednesday!
Great verse - one I need constant reminder of...Thank you Lord for your provision and wisdom in knowing what is best for us. Help us trust in You!

Great verse! Thanks for your comment at the Cafe. Blessings, Carol
LauraLee, this was so beautifully written. I praise God that true contentment is found in Him no matter what our circumstances, especially $$$ wise. Amen! Happy WFW!
We can only be content resting in Him...trusting in His love, His sovereignty, His faithfulness...just like a babe rests content in His mother's arms..safe from the storms around...may we rest contentedly..thank you, LauraLee..
Hi Lauralee! EVERYTHING we need for Life and Godliness....
Amazing truth.
OH! To be able to live this verse. My mother has a vision/dream of a little cabin in heaven -- and she beleives with all her heart that the cabin is her eternal home... WOW I think she "gets" this verse.
Thank you!
Happy WFW!
Amen Laura Lee...You have put a song in my heart of JOY as my first WFW for the day. HE IS ENOUGH isn't He? It is so sad to see from the world's view of money, greed, and even feelings. Your first words were so very true and expressed so clearly add a beautiful photo & verse...with a prayer = the perfect WFW! Enjoy WFW & the week ahead!
Oooooh yes. You absolutely blessed me with this post. Amen and amen. Thank you.
First of all...you have a GORGEOUS blog...love the look of it; Very serene and calming and a beautiful verse to go with it.
Thank you for your comment though your verse was very convicting. Beautiful!
Great verse! Glad I found your blog. I plan on visiting more often.
Blessings to you!
Beautiful post!
Beautiful picture and such a wonderful verse. I pray we all find our true source of contentment in the Lord.
Happy WFW!
I LOOOOOVE that verse. It's often God's word to me, and to my kiddos :)
Beautiful!
ooooo i needed to hear this one! Amen! thanks for posting this today! i need to remember it!
Now, you just hit the nail right on the head with this post.
Great picture and the scripture hit hard.
I think it's truly time we all check our hearts out.
Blessings♥

Laura Lee...it's great...

Beautiful describes both the picture and the scripture. Thank you for being God's mouthpiece today. This post speaks volumes to me about where I am right now and what God is trying to teach me. Thank you.
A lovely and refreshing reminder!
Hugs,

Great verse and illustration! Thanks for sharing.
It has been too long since my last visit here! Great WFW...beautiful blog...wonderful Words of life. Blessings to you!
A beautiful verse/photo combo & a fantastic reminder. Blessings to you!
Such a great post! Love that scripture too!!
You have a blog award at my blog waiting for you.
Oh what a great verse. It's a verse that gives a glimpse of the Christian faith in a nutshell don't you think? The world says you have to have more, be in control and it's all about you and having what youwant. Jesus says, whoever loses his life will have it. I wish I oculd find the verse that goes with this but you get the idea.
thanks for sharing,
Stefani
Amen!!!
