One step at a time

“For God is working in you, giving you the desire and the power to do what pleases him.” (Philippians 2:13, NLT)

“Heavenly Father, help us to trust Your ways in our lives. Difficulties can sometimes overwhelm us. Give us the grace to keep taking one step at a time, to respond to Your training, and to rest each day as You carry us through. In Jesus’ name we come. Amen. ”

(from Own Your Life by Sally Clarkson, page 66)

Barbie, I am praying for you as I have read your request within the group. May you hold on our God who truly is able & is provisional. May He continue to give you the grace to take one step at a time in His strength. So grateful we are praying big in 2015!
