My dear friend, Mrs. Helms, read this to me from her devotions yesterday. I asked her to send it to me and I thought I would share it. This has truly been an encouragement to me during a difficult time in my life for me and my family.

"Rest with me a while, You have journeyed up a steep, rugged path. The way ahead is shrouded in uncertainty. Look neither behind you nor before you. Instead, focus your attention on Me, your constant Companion. Trust that I will equip you fully for whatever awaits you on your journey.
I designed time to be a protection for you. You couldn't bear to see all of your life at once. Though I am unlimited by time, it is in the present moment that I meet you. Refresh yourself in My company, breathing deep draughts of My Presence. The highest level of trust is to enjoy Me moment by moment. I am with you, watching over you whenever you go.
Psalm 143:8; Genesis 28:15"

I am asking for prayer from friends and family that the Lord would be working in my mother's heart. Please pray for strength for me and my siblings and also for wisdom and grace in a time of extreme hardship.
