God gives us what we need, He takes care of everything, even in Matthew it talks about how He already knows all of our needs. Matthew 6:25-34!
Well, sometimes we have battlefields in our minds, and sometimes I let that get to me. It really messes me up sometimes, but this Lenten devotion really helped me this time. It talked about Jesus looking at a man and just loving Him. I thought of that earlier today, and I didn't quite understand the whole verse. Another part of it was "go sell what you own" and it relates this way, to get rid of our "stuff" that we have sometimes.
It seems like I get in the way a lot. But it feels so much better to be emptied of the junk. It is clear, focus, Jesus. Well, there were some questions and silent meditation times, and the meditations can really help. There were three questions that were hitting home:
Does your self image hold you back from God?
Are you afraid to let things go?
Do you hold on to old hurts?
I believe those answers are yes. God has reminded me again of His GRACE and that I can let those things go! Learn to love myself, my image, and knowing a loving God. Isn't it amazing that He died and forgave all our junk? What a blessing! Hm, doesn't taht just make you feel better? Grace of God, it is like the smell of our Lilies and the rain of the spring and the clearness and Jesus and Holy Spirit and the Father!

Praise the Lord, in Jesus' name, AMEN!
