The Lord is good!\u201d \u00a0Simple words that say so much. His promise to myself and to my children is reason enough to live this passage on a daily basis&#8230;but He has done so much more than that. \u00a0He has done more than I could ever imagine. \u00a0I want to live these verses not because of what He has done in my life, but for who He is to the world. \u00a0He is faithful, He is loving, and for this I thank Him.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Let\u2019s Pray<\/span><\/strong>: Lord, Your words bring peace&#8230;they bring joy&#8230;they bring security. Words could never truly honor You as You deserve; but, Lord, we promise to make the best effort we possibly can. \u00a0I pray these words are written on the hearts of all the women reading this, and that we live these words in good times and in bad. \u00a0In Jesus\u2019 name we pray, Amen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Shout with joy to the LORD, all the earth!
