YMCA

“Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.”Hebrews 4:16

Often when you hear the words YMCA you may think of the popular Village People song or you could think of the organization with the fitness center and youth programs. My subject is the latter today. 

Recently I woke up in a funk over different things and started ragging on my husband which I know was wrong. Yep me the devotion writer was not practicing what I preach. Anyway I went to check my YMCA 360 App to see what fitness classes might be coming up and imagine my surprise when the words ‘Faith Journey’ popped up and low and behold the organization was emphasizing their letter ‘C’ meaning Christian and I was flabbergasted and delighted as well. 

Here was a time God’s perfect timing when I found myself in a huge black hole of my own creation and this devotion popped up on extending grace to others. Just because you are walking with the Lord doesn’t mean all things are always going to be perfect. It is essential to keep focused on things above as I find out on a daily basis. No matter what you are going through the Lord is there waiting and he gives you the ability to wait if only you will. So I hope you can go in peace today and conquer with God’s help whatever it is that is overwhelming you. 

PRAYER: Lord help anyone out there who is dealing with waiting on answers to prayers. Give strength and peace. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
