My Devotional Journal: Today's Our Daily Bread author, Patricia Rayon… AT THIS LINK … … tells of a couple looking out their window on a cold day to see freezing fog, yet hearing a forecast of sunny weather in less than one hour.  It was difficult to believe the forecast; but in less than the predicted hour, the weather cleared.   

Sometimes in our lives things seem so foggy that we have trouble holding on to God’s promises (see God’s truth in the Scriptures cited above); and we have trouble trusting God as Lauren Daigle sings in the linked song.  And I pray, … with many things being so foggy in my life right now, Lord, to hold on to Your promises from Your word; and I will trust You, Lord to be my rock and protector … ALWAYS!    And to my readers, I pray this, as well. for you.           

My THANKFULNESS: ... Oh, Abba Father, thank You, King Jesus, … for ALWAYS being my strength when I am weak.                                

My Prayer Today: Oh Abba Father, ... King Jesus, ... . I pray that all reading here will join me, … to rest on the Rock of Ages we can ALWAYS trust Him to sustain us.    … Amen
