LEAVE OUTCOMES UP TO ME. Follow Me wherever I lead, without worrying about how it will all turn out. Think of your life as an adventure, with Me as your Guide and Companion. Live in the now, concentrating on staying in step with Me. When our path leads to a cliff, be willing to climb it with My help. When we come to a resting place, take time to be refreshed in My Presence. Enjoy the rhythm of life lived close to Me.
You already know the ultimate destination of your journey: your entrance into heaven. so keep your focus on the path just before you, leaving outcomes up to Me.
Psalm 27:13-14 I am still confident of this: I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord.

I will sing to my Lord as long as I live, I will sing
praise to my God while I have my being.
This means we are to work hard at being righteous, follow the Lord and let God handle how it turns out. It does not mean we are to stop planning, preparing, working toward and visualizing a beautiful future. We must do all those things to our best ability according to God’s will. Then we can rest, sure that God will deliver the very best outcome.
So, let us this day embark on the ultimate adventure with joy and anticipation with God as our guide.
And as Eden reveals itself on our journey, our best good is assured. And we can know with certainty that God is with us and that no evil can overcome us, ever!
Enjoying the rhythm of life,

Words of comfort during times of stress. (I understand that STRESS comes from inside; and that we are each responsible for our own thoughts and the handling of our feelings… thus allowing one’s self to deal with negative “appearances” in a positive way. I also realize that stressors are “out there” and that “STUFF HAPPENS”. Therefore, applying the point that has been hammered home repeatedly: how we interpret and process our perceptions of reality is done internally; and whatever sort of day, or moment, that we have is determined by choice and resulting decisions… with God’s help of course, as erroneous habits of thinking can be hard to break.)
As usual, the timing of this meditation is perfect.
