In me, Jesus abides
I am the branch, He is the Vine
He provides the spice
That makes me vibrant and bright.
Scripture reference: John 15:5
Great are the works of the Lord – Psalm 111:2

Whether it’s getting healed from a long illness
Or getting money after a financial mess
Or getting peace and rest after stress
Finally getting an answer to your prayer request
When you’ve pushed for a breakthrough
And reached the state where you can call it success
You can start rejoicing
For the Lord has brought forth a new thing (ref. Isaiah 43:19)
And the peak is beautiful to see.
Scripture reference Isaiah 43:19
Person detected at 3 am
That was the scary notification from the security camera
My mind began to race
Did they come back? Are they casing the place?
So strange, I had felt something was going to go wrong
And was actually up at 2 in the morn
But fell asleep at 3
So didn’t get notification beep
When woke later in the morning, I noticed notification
My mind began to race and debate, do I first view the tape?
Or go on to read the Bible and to meditate
Tape is important, what if they still on property?
If so, how can I prevent harm to me?
Settled the conflict by being reminded of Psalm 91
Which refers to danger all around but not coming near me
After all, didn’t the Lord protect?
The inside of property is still intact
So right away I didn’t view the tape
Went on to read scripture and to give the Lord thanks and praise
While using the same time I use each day
When I did get around to seeing the tape
Discovered not only was the notification scary
It was not an account of what the camera did see
Tape showed a car, not a person on the property
And it was nothing out of the ordinary
And all that time my mind was racing
Working up a sweat and worrying
Was not about to make meditation a priority
When I remembered Jesus said don’t worry (Matthew 6:25-34)
And that the Lord will keep in perfect peace (Isaiah 26:3)
The Lord will protect
And that will never be scary or incorrect.
