It took me forever, Lord, to learn how to lean. To leave my friends as you lovingly began to wean. I know I was stubborn, and I dug in my heels, And when you applied pressure did I ever squeal.

My children, I am the Creator of ALL, and ALL power originates with ME! There is no power in heaven or on earth that is able to thwart My purposes for your life as you yield to Me. NONE!

I have looked away from You Lord

Today, I encourage you to set aside worrying about vanity, and to look for all the REAL beauty in life. Here’s a hint. The first place to start is with calling out to God.
