Morning Devotional 1.10.2026

“Bless the LORD, O my soul, and all that is within me, bless his holy name. Bless the LORD, O my soul, and do not forget all his benefits—”
‭‭Psalms‬ ‭103‬:‭1‬-‭2‬ ‭NRSVUE‬‬

Returning today to the wise counsel given by a friend who said,
“It’s time to stop living in survival mode.”

I’m not there yet, but I have begun to breathe deeply once again. Because I was feeling so insecure, I had become my own worst enemy.

Meditation was my rescue this morning, starting with this…

”Tension is who you think you should be. Relaxation is who you are.”

I need constant reminders that God is in control. I have walked through so many fires this year that I have to relearn how to be soft.
How to yield.
How to ask for help.
How to remember that I am held.

Thank you to the people who remind me, incessantly.
Thank God for the people who remind me, incessantly.

As a friend who covers me in prayer particularly when I cannot find my own voice, gently reminded me again today, “all shall be well.”

Hallelujah, and thanks be to God.

Check on your so-called strong friends. Most of us are self-destructive idiots who don’t know how or when to yield. Thank you for loving us anyway.
