A Note For the Overwhelmed

Do you need to hear this, today?
I did.

"Seeing that a Pilot steers the ship in which we sail, who will never allow us to perish even in the midst of shipwrecks, there is no reason why our minds should be overwhelmed with fear and overcome with weariness."
~John Calvin

I'm so glad my life isn't in my own hands. It's one thing to know - it's another to believe. Once you believe it - there is such relief.

Thanks, Laur! That was really encouraging to read...I am always forgetting who really is in control of my life and I get exasperated over little things, which I shouldn't. This reminded me and helped me keep the faith!

I love you more than you could ever know! You're the best and keep looking to God for guidance! :)

Love from your soul sister, Ry
