Scribbles and Scrambles ~ My Prayer for You Today

1 Thessalonians 5:23-24

May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. The one who calls you is faithful, and he will do it.

Scribbles and Scrambles ~ Life is Hard, God is Good

Hebrews 13: 5-7

Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said,

“Never will I leave you;
never will I forsake you.”

So we say with confidence,

“The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid.
What can mere mortals do to me?”

Remember your leaders, who spoke the word of God to you. Consider the outcome of their way of life and imitate their faith. Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.

Scribbles and Scrambles ~ Reminders

So in case you are wondering why I'm posting pictures and verses and the thoughts of others... I thought the beginning of a new year was a good time to focus on truth outside of myself and my thoughts.

I get tired of my own thoughts and the spinning of said thoughts. God is teaching me, growing me and reminding me. So I'm going to spend the rest of the month sharing the reminders He passes along.

^{1 Thessalonians 5:16-18}

Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.

Scribbles and Scrambles ~ He Knows

Psalm 139:1-5

You have searched me, LORD,
and you know me.
You know when I sit and when I rise;
you perceive my thoughts from afar.
You discern my going out and my lying down;
you are familiar with all my ways.
Before a word is on my tongue
you, LORD, know it completely.
You hem me in behind and before,
and you lay your hand upon me.

Scribbles and Scrambles ~ Tune Up

Faith is a bird that feels dawn breaking and sings while it is still dark.


- Rabindranath Tagore

Scribbles and Scrambles ~ Take It.

Faith isn't the ability to believe long and far into the misty future.
It's simply taking God at His Word and taking the next step.
- Joni Erickson Tada

Scribbles and Scrambles ~ Be Encouraged

James 1:16-18

Don’t be deceived, my dear brothers and sisters.

Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.

He chose to give us birth through the word of truth, that we might be a kind of firstfruits of all he created.
