Daughters of Promise July/August 2014 | Page 24

Savior pearl of promise YOU KEEP TRACK of all my sorrows. YOU HAVE COLLECTED ALL MY TEARS IN YOUR BOTTLE. You have recorded each one in your book. My enemies will retreat WHEN I CALL TO YOU FOR HELP. This I know: GOD IS ON MY SIDE! I praise God for what he has promised; yes, I praise the LORD for what he has promised. I TRUST IN GOD, so why should I be afraid? WHAT CAN MERE MORTALS DO TO ME? PS. 56:8-11, NLT in radiance and beauty because she has loved Me in return. You may not have her because I am Jesus- her Advocate (1 John 2:1), Mediator (1 Tim. 2:5), and Faithful Witness (Rev. 1:5-6). Knowing Who Jesus Is will be something we are constantly discovering, because He is an indescribable majestic combination of Son of God and Son of Man. Jesus is what gives us women purpose, meaning, strength, and courage for life as He walks beside us every day in a personal relationship. “For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord” (Rom. 8:38-39 KJV). -24- MarJanita LaRosa Geigley is an average Pennsylvania gal, living with her brother, parents, and (large, loveable, polka-dotted dog) Oreo. Her favorite activities are reading classics, writing, painting, traveling, and singing; and she loves train rides, vintage Volkswagens, crayons, kneesocks, picnics, and frozen yogurt. If you cannot find her at the desk writing, she is probably with her girls’ choir, taking classes somewhere, or doing shortterm mission work to shower Jesus’ love upon hurting kids.
