“The name of The Lord is a STRONG TOWER; The righteous man runs into it and is safe (Proverbs 18:10).”
“This I declare about the LORD: He alone is my refuge, my place of safety; he is my God, and I trust him (Psalm 91:2).”
New Day; New Mercies
“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here (2 Cor 5:17)!”
“A NEW DAY will dawn on us from above because our God is LOVING and MERCIFUL (Luke 1:78).”

“Comparison is the thief of Joy.”

“The reason why many are still troubled, still seeking, still making little forward progress is because they haven’t yet come to the end of themselves. We’re still trying to give orders, and interfering with God’s work within us. ” ―A.W. Tozer
“Do not call to mind the former things, Or ponder things of the past (Isaiah 43:18).”
