So this is piecing...

The Lord is thumping me on the head to get my attention today. My daily email from rejoiceministries.org reads as:

BE STILL! -

Scripture for today: Psalm 37

"Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him; do not fret when men succeed in their ways, when they carry out their wicked schemes. Refrain from anger and turn from wrath; do not fret--it leads only to evil. For evil men will be cut off, but those who hope in the Lord will inherit the land." Psalm 37:7-9

Are you being attacked in every area of your life? Remember what the Lord wants you to do. Be still and wait patiently for Him. This may be very difficult for you to do, but be obedient to the Lord's ways. May I challenge you, regardless of what you are going through, may you be silent and wait patiently for Him to act in your behalf.

Another important lesson is not to worry about your problems, even when your spouse may appear to be "winning" in many different areas. This scripture even tells us to refrain from anger and do not worry as it leads only to evil.

"Do not fret because of evil men or be envious of those who do wrong; for like the grass they will soon wither, like green plants they will soon die away. Trust in the LORD and do good; dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture. Delight yourself in the LORD and he will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the LORD; trust in him and he will do this." Psalm 37:1-5

Your circumstances may seem overwhelming. What should you do? Pray, do not worry, and trust in the Lord. Believe in His love for you, your spouse and your family. Believe in His power knowing that He can do far more than anyone can possibly imagine.

"Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power, that is at work within us." Ephesians 3:20

Are you upset and angry because of what you are being put through due to your spouse, marriage problems, separation or divorce? Do not become angry. Talk to God, tell Him your feelings, your emotions, your hurts and your pains. He is the only one that can remove, heal and restore you to your righteous state. Do not let the devil get a stronghold in your life by you having anger, bitterness, hatred, fits of rage and jealousy.

"God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble." Psalm 46:1

God is giving us instructions in how we should live, and we each have a choice. Do not be angry or jealous and stop worrying. Give your problems to God and praise Him that He is greater than any circumstance. He can part the Red Sea, or send a lamb up the other side of your mountain. Be still before the Lord knowing His mighty power.

"Be still, and know that I am God...The Lord Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress. Selah" Psalm 46:10-11

Remember what Moses told His people when their enemy was coming against them.

"...Do not be afraid. Stand firm and you will see the deliverance the Lord will bring you today. The Egyptians you see today you will never see again. The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still." Exodus 14:13-14

Our God is so great and mighty! Read Exodus 14 to be encouraged today. Let your Lord part your Red Sea of circumstances!!

Ok, Lord, you have my attention!!

I really need Him right now because my H and BMOW are having a flurry of email activity this afternoon and they are only corresponding with each other and not copying to me or to the business partners--against the rules. My H has still said nothing to me about the original email he sent to her yesterday that has now started this exchange.

So far it has all been business and I am thankful to the Lord that my H has allowed me access to this one email account of his to follow it, but I have to wonder in the back of my head where it will lead. Slowly now over time, the rules have become bent or broken regarding their contact with one another. My H has told me in the past that he simply wants her to get bored with her position as business manager of his company and to simply move on of her own free will, but his correspondence with her today seems to reflect another line of thinking on his part. Right now their correspondence includes discussion of implementing some long range plans, together, for the business.

Sigh.

I shall go read Exodus 14 now to be encouraged. Thank you, Lord, for your Word!

Be blessed,
