Daily Scriptures 8/7/12

Scripture: Isaiah 11:2 The Spirit of the LORD will rest on him—the Spirit of wisdom and of understanding, the Spirit of counsel and of might, the Spirit of the knowledge and fear of the LORD (NIV)

Nugget: In all areas of our lives, God is present. Lately, I’ve been praying about following God’s direction & plans for my life. I came across this scripture & it’s so fitting. We have wisdom, understanding, counsel, & knowledge in the Lord. All of these things come from respecting Him & His plans for us. Everything we need is in God. We must turn to Him & His word to show us where to start.

If you are praying for direction & guidance for the next phase of your life, or any decision for that matter, turn to God first. Don’t let the things that could overwhelm you about changing your direction or plans get in the way of you seeing God’s presence in all things. Everything we need is in Him.

Quote: “If you believe in a God who controls the big things, you have to believe in a God who controls the little things. It is we, of course, to whom things look “little” or “big.” -Elisabeth Elliot
