MEND


God wants to mend our hearts, minds, and souls. He wants to repair what’s broken in us. James 5:16 says we are to confess our sins and pray with one another. When we do this, we bring our deepest hurts into the light, and healing can begin. Praying then becomes an act of restoration that allows God to begin the mending process.

We are reminded in the same verse that healing doesn’t happen alone. As believers, we are to pray for one another. In doing so, God can use those prayers to heal any kind of brokenness, be that physical, emotional, or spiritual. Over time God renews and restores us fully.

Satisfied

Haiku for 5-Minute Friday. This week’s word for 5-Minute Friday is satisfied.

Witness

Do not be silent!

Witness that the LORD is King!

Show your love for Him!

Each Friday, Kaitlin, over at Five Minute Friday, sends a prompt that we can use to write for 5 minutes and then post on the FMF Link-up. I often choose to write a haiku and this one came very easily. I hope you enjoy it. Come join us! Marie

Conclude

I will conclude this difficult year by:

Finishing well! I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. 2 Timothy 4:7

Ending with a new beginning in mind!  Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here! 2 Corinthians 5:17

Stop! Then the angel told them, “Stop being afraid! Listen! I am bringing you good news of great joy for all the people. Luke 2:10 

Cease any grumbling or complaining! Do everything without complaining (grumbling) and arguing… Philippians 2:14

And so, I will end this year on a happy note… Rejoice in the Lord always and again I say rejoice! Philippians 4:4

Blessings to you and yours!

Marie
