Avery is a middle aged hard working woman raising a family, supporting a husband, and caring for aging parents. Every morning when she rises from sleep, she pauses with her feet on the floor, and quietly prays, “Lord, how can I do another day?” Finally one morning after rising, she couldn’t go on so she sat in her chair and asked again, “Lord, how can I do another day?”
This time, the Lord answered her and said, “Dear child, lean back, close your eyes, and think of me.” She did exactly as He said and immediately she was at peace. To this day she couldn’t tell if she had been asleep, or just lost in the spirit realm. All she knew was that moments later, when she opened her eyes, all the weight was lifted, the burden and worry that had persisted to plague her had simply vanished. She felt like a young girl again, rested, full of energy, and excited for the day. She picked her Bible from the small table beside her, placed it in her lap and opened it at random. Her eyes fell upon the following scripture.
