Have you misperceived tone and intent? There is to be no hesitation on seeking the face of God. He alone is your safe and healing place, one we are to draw so close, we can hear his whispers.

Would people describe you as gentle? Whether man or woman, the Apostle Paul instructs us to let our gentleness be evident to all because the LORD is near, Philippians 4:5. Especially in circumstances when it is not warranted, like in situations with "enemies". The LORD tells us to bless our enemies, and in so doing, this will heap burning coals on their head. So meditate on the gentleness the LORD calls us to in this time of breath prayer and silence. Blessings in His presence!

Today I take you through the entirety of Psalm 116. With a cry of the heart, with thanksgiving in our mouths, with childlike trust we use the psalmists words bringing them into our confession. We speak to our souls to return to rest because the LORD has been good to us. Join in as I pray through and have your bible handy for reference so you can practice seeing the scripture as I pray it. Blessings in His presence!
