I Prayed For You This Morning

by | Aug 17, 2015 | Love God

I prayed for you this morning.

I prayed for God to encourage your heart, especially today.

I can’t begin to guess what you’re facing this day, this week. But God knows. And He cares.

He’s well aware of all that’s ahead for each one of us. After all, He knows everything about us.

I asked God to help you see Him and His fingerprints on your life today. I asked Him to draw you close to Him, and I prayed His blessings upon you.

Maybe you’re unsure about your future. Friend, God isn’t. He has a beautiful future planned for you.

Or maybe you’re facing troubled times involving money, health, relationships (or lack thereof). God is with you and He’s not going anywhere .

It’s possible you’re discouraged or disheartened, or are in the depths of depression. God is lifting your head.

Maybe you’re lonely and your heart is broken. Friend, God is especially near to you.

Life may be in transition. Your baby going off to school, or starting college. A parent’s health is in decline. A new job, or loss of one. Trust God in the transition, He’s going to guide you.

Maybe you’re frustrated, or afraid, and you can’t move forward. God is going to go with you as you take each step.

No matter what you’re facing today, friend, trust God through it all. He loves you. He wants His best for you. He isn’t going to leave you.

From my devotional reading this morning, Jesus Calling by Sarah Young:

“Accept each day just as it comes to you. Do not waste your time and energy wishing for a different set of circumstances. Instead, trust Me enough to yield to My design and purposes. Remember that nothing can separate you from My loving Presence; you are Mine.”

Isaiah 431

You are His, my friend. Rejoice in that truth, and share it with another who could use this reminder today.

Be encouraged.

Much love,

Julie

Does God Really Have Good Things In Store For Me?
Somedays it's easy to put God on the back burner. Without God's Word renewing our minds, we can slip into defaulting to wordly and anxious thinking. In fact, that's always what our brains will do. 

Today is a good day to renew our minds again. Let's open our Bibles and see what God has to say. It can literally change our lives and our perspectives.

What's your favorite Scripture? Share it below.

Have you ever caught yourself thinking, “I’m not enough... I’ll never get it right... I’m failing at everything”?

You’re not alone—and those words aren’t the truth.

Join us for She Speaks Life, a special morning created for women just like you—women who are tired of the negative self-talk and ready to replace it with God’s truth. Together, we’ll learn to speak life over ourselves, find freedom in our true identity, and encourage one another in a space full of grace.

Come as you are. Leave refreshed, encouraged, and reminded of the power your words hold.

Bring a friend. There’s a seat for you. 💛

Are you looking at your life through a smudged window? 🪟

Negative thoughts. Discouragement. Comparison.

Sometimes they blur the view and make us forget what’s true.

But God invites us to see life through His eyes—full of hope, purpose, and peace.

🎧 This week on the Encouragement for Real Life Podcast, we’re doing some soul spring cleaning—with our perspective.

Feeling a little discouraged today?

You’re not forgotten. You’re not overlooked.
God is still near—still providing, still working, still weaving good into your story.

You don’t have to figure it all out.
Just take the next step, trust His timing, and know this:
He hasn’t let go of you.

Sometimes all it takes is one frustrating moment to shift our whole mood, right?
But wait... maybe the whole day isn’t bad… maybe it's just a rough patch.

Let’s zoom out today.
There’s still good here.
There’s still joy to be found.
Don’t let five minutes steal 24 hours.

Today can still be a great day.

So many women are waiting for the right time—for more clarity, less chaos, or a better version of themselves.

But friend, the abundant life isn’t on hold until things are perfect. God does some of His best work in the middle of the mess. Your right now is the perfect place to begin.

What’s one small way you can embrace your right now today?

I'm @julielefebure, and I'm here to help you live the abundant life Jesus came to give you. Follow for more.

I woke in awe today because in those first eye-opening moments, I pondered the truth of Easter. 

Jesus defeated death... for me. For me.

Why? How? All the things I've done, said, thought... I am undeserving of this kind of gift.

But I guess that's the point, isn't it? If I deserved it, it wouldn't mean as much as it does today. He rose from the grave because I didn't deserve it. He rose from the grave, so someday I will, too. In the meantime, because I believe in this truth, I get to live in the hope of eternal life with Him. Forever. 

What a hope. What a love. What a Savior.
