Today's verse from BibleGateway.com

“Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.” Matthew 5:11-12

This is the latest message I keep getting from God.  Certainly not an easy place to be in, but just trying to keep my focus on God.  When we are in His presence, everything else seems so small because His presence is so grand!  There is love, there is safety, there is hope, there is encouragement, there is strength, there is mercy, there is peace!  The list goes on!  What an awesome God we serve!  I am so thankful to be called His child and I am thankful to have two beautiful girls who seek Him out. 

Despite the uneasiness of where I am right now, I am blessed and anxious to see where God is taking me!  Jeremiah 29:11  For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.  God's future is bright for me and you!
