Greetings,
I have been in a purging mood lately,
so this past week I tackled a crate filled with every Mother’s Day, Birthday, Anniversary,
Valentine’s Day, and Thank You card that I have accumulated for the past 30 years. It was a pleasant trip down memory lane, and
also bitter-sweet reading some of the messages that my now-grown children wrote
when they were little.
“Mommy, you’re the best.”
“Thank you for making my favorite lunch
every day.”
“I promise to cuddle for 20 minutes.”
All that reminiscing made me think
about what God would write to me if He were to give me a card: “Dear Yenise, I
know the plans I have for you – plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans
to give you a hope and a future” (Jeremiah 29:11).
Those are some of the best words ever
written in the Bible and a powerful promise for all God’s children.
PRAYER: Dear Lord, thank You that Your
plans for my life are good. You are
willing to provide a hope-filled future, and I receive it. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
