#SheSharesTruth...Joshua 1:8-9

Linking up with the #SheReadsTruth community again...a little late since it's Saturday morning and not Friday...but here I am.

It has been a goal of mine to really dive into the bible, daily, and finding its meaning for me.  This also scared me at the same time...what if I don't understand it, what if I can't keep all the stories and characters straight, what if it just doesn't relate to me??  I have found by connecting up with #SheReadsTruth and now the #SheSharesTruth experiment I am able to consistently meditate on it daily in a place where I can get guidance on the who, what, where and when...and all of the "tough" stuff in the bible is beginning to make sense, I have verses that stick with me and through this community I am making connections with women who have common goals and beliefs!!  The book of the law is putting its stamp on my heart...I continue to be blown away by how the word relates to other women and it is very apparent if you choose to "dig in" you will get exactly what you need from the bible in the exact moment you need it.

Just as vs. 9 commands us...

There are sooooo many scenarios that I can relate this passage to at this VERY moment...but I think I will just let these words set on my heart and let them pump out to every cell in my body...because this is a command I have no problem taking without questioning!!!

#SheSharesTruth...Psalm 38

Thanks again to the gals of #SheReadsTruth for allowing me to "dig deep" into scripture this Lenten season and really challenge myself.  It has given me a deeper sense of gratitude to you ladies...doing this DAILY for us...what a true gift you have...and then to top it off when I was struggling with what this passage meant to me...or how I would put it into words...I could just link up with some of the other posts and there it was...the meaning of Psalm 38 on my heart...with the "push" of all these women!!!

Verse 4 really resonated with me...I have been there...hanging onto guilt...for far too long...

I can honestly say that I know what it feels like to hold on to guilt or any other un-worthy feeling for far too long...you can feel it in your mind, body and soul....from the top of your head to your finger tips and toes...where it takes away your "light at the end of the tunnel"...questioning that thing we call faith...and when this happens we must remember to draw near to our Lord...cry out to him and know HE will find us and lead us back...we must have an open honest heart and seek Him above ALL things!!!  From the smallest of battles to the biggest...they are never too small or too big.
