A Quiet Yes to God

So let God work his will in you. Yell a loud no to the Devil and watch him make himself scarce. Say a quiet yes to God and he’ll be there in no time.—James 4:8 (MSG)

What is your greatest fear? What is holding you back? When you are connected to God you can face your challenges and move beyond them. By sharing breath with Him and aligning your will with His, you will recognize that anything is possible.

Lord, when I pause and focus on You, I empty myself of negative thoughts and return refreshed and renewed.
