"I have found David...a man after My own heart, who will do all my will."
Acts 13:22

From Elizabeth's heart...to yours.... Whew! I feel like I’ve been on a roller coaster ride for the past few months. “Busy” seems like a weak word to describe the all-consuming fastlane I’ve been traveling in. But I thank God for the fullness of my days. A new book was finished and released. (Praise the Lord!) I had the opportunity to address many audiences of wonderful women. (Another praise, dear Lord!) And Jim and I welcomed a new granddaughter into this world. (Thank You, God!) In all my books I write about the busyness of the life of a woman after God’s own heart. Our days are full...and overflowing. And it’s easy to get upset and frustrated when things fall through the cracks and don’t get the attention we’d like to give them. But in and through our faithful work and attention to duty God is blessing us, using us, and accomplishing His will. May we remember to thank God for full, rich, busy, meaningful days...no matter how tired we are! And now on a related subject that can help your days go better - here's a devotion about a common symptom all women share! “Dear Abby. I suffer from headaches, stomach-aches, my eyes hurt...” Despite what we tell ourselves, most chronic problems have one common symptom - fear. But no matter what’s happening in your life, when you walk by God’s Spirit you are blessed with peace. Scripture teaches that peace has nothing to do with circumstances. True peace is knowing God is always with you. Psalm 139:7-10 says, “Where can I go from Your Spirit? Or where can I flee from Your presence? If I ascend into heaven, You are there; if I make my bed in hell, behold, You are there. If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea, even there Your hand shall lead me, and Your right hand shall hold me.” The key to peace isn’t the absence of conflict - it’s the presence of God! Until tomorrow, from my heart to yours, Elizabeth This devotion is from Elizabeth George's book, A Woman After God's Own Heart - A Daily Devotional.
