Monday - Back


“’Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you, and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart; and you shall find rest for your souls, for My yoke is easy, and My load is light.’” Matthew 11:28-30

“’’For the heart of this people has become dull, and with their ears they scarcely hear, and they have closed their eyes lest they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart and return, and I should heal them.’ But blessed are your eyes, because they see; and your ears, because they hear.’” Matthew 13:15-16

In the nine years that I have tried to remain faithful with the WeakDay Devotion, I have only taken one break and that was a time filled with the stress with trying to wrestle with the supporting technology in getting the devotion distributed (and why the blog site started too). But last week I just found I needed to take extra time and fill my heart a bit more. Thank you to those of you who were concerned and contacted me, God uses each of you for His purposes in my life and in the lives of those around you. Good to just stop and listen once in a while…at least it is for me.

Stay near God's Word. Take care. Your servant & friend in Christ, Darlene

PS: Prayer Requests: Lyle’s brother recovering from cancer (fell 40 feet off a balcony) needs prayer to heal from broken pelvis, leg, shoulder, elbow. David’s, Adrian’s and Randy’s doctors. Gregg who must sell his home in the UK. Praise for Paul’s new job. And my need.
