be affirmed in Christ

“My soul finds rest in God alone; my salvation comes from him. He alone is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress, I will never be shaken.” Psalm 62:1-2 {NIV}

“My help and glory are in God-granite strength and safe-harbor-God-so trust him absolutely, people; lay your lives on the line for him.  God is a safe place to be.” Psalm 62: 5-8 {MSG}

As we abandon ourselves to God, moment by moment, our significance and identity will be in his hands; they become his responsibility, not mine. –James Houston

As long as we keep running around, anxiously trying to affirm ourselves or be affirmed by others, we remain blind to One who has loved us first, dwells in our heart, and has formed our truest self. –Henri Nouwen

Be encouraged! God loves you more than you’ll ever know. Help me Lord to find my significance in YOU! Remind me often that you are a safe place, a refuge. You are granite strength!
