“Give thanks to the Lord for He is good; His Love endures forever” Psalm 107

When fear beckons to overcome me, I run to His Presence. I throw myself down at His feet, knowing that I will find safety there. As I gaze upon my Eucharistic Lord in the Blessed Sacrament, He embraces me with his tender love and mercy. I weep before my King and He ever so gently wipes away each tear. He invites me to sit in His presence so He can love me just as I am. Jesus whispers softly: “My precious child you are my beloved child and I love you just as you are. Allow me to fill your heart with my love and peace.”

I give thanks to the Lord when the sun is shining brightly bringing forth rays of new hope and expectancy. I give thanks to my God when my heart is being tossed about like a ship in the vast ocean in the midst of a terrible storm. As the waves of doubt and fear threaten to overtake me, I stand firm because I am anchored in His love.

My King and my God you are all that I need. You are all that I want. You are worthy of all my praise. Your love endures forever.
