BUILD UP ONE ANOTHER
Devotion by Trevor Josh Ramirez
Lately, we have been challenged with finances as my mother is in between jobs and she has been praying to God for a new work opportunity. There are days she would send me a message asking for prayers and some words of encouragement. I would seek the Holy Spirit to give me a word of wisdom and encouragement to my mom. One of the verses that God revealed to me is from the book of Psalm 37:7 "Be still in the presence of the Lord, and wait patiently for Him to act." After sending this verse to my mom, she sent me a heart emoji and thanked me for reminding her to wait patiently for the Lord and in waiting, keep praying. When I got home, she gave me a long tight hug.
That evening, I gave thanks to the Holy Spirit for allowing me to share the Word of God to my mom. Sometimes, even the people we know who are strong, also need some encouragement. I remember mom shared with us a command from the Lord to encourage one another and build one another up. When we keep this in mind, we will remember to always "Be The Light!"
