Peace Be Still A poem written by God Peace be still within you, says the Lord. Be at peace with me, and I will reside in you from now on! Peace be still in all you do, in all life’s waters. Peace be still within you, who is made up of water. Peace be still, within you who needs to trust in the Lord with everything in life and your future life that is to come! Peace be still in all the waves that come crashing against your mind and your thoughts of me! Peace be still in your raging seas, in the depths of your heart, when all is not still, let peace be still. Even then trust in me, and I will show you the way to still waters from the raging seas of your mind! Peace be still within you, so you may do my perfect and complete will for your life. Peace be still even now when you doubt your future in me and you don’t know what will happen next or what the future may bring. Peace be still in the fact that all is well with thee and thy soul rests in me, and I in you says the Lord of Hosts. Amen

I have had a physical manifestation of His presence 1 month ago. Many emotional manifestations throughout my life. I was convicted of smoking weed, porn, masterbation, stealing, and lying for many years. Today, I do not live in the flesh any longer, however I struggle sometimes and give in. I’m not going to say it’s been easy. The last thing to go was quitting weed. Everytime the Lord told me to quit, I ignored Jesus. I’m so happy that I am free of all those things. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ FREE INDEED ❤❤❤❤

God will bring some good out of it I remember my cat died of a tumor and the same day my uncle died I found out the next day. It was awful. I missed a load of stuff at class my favourite stuff too. I love poetry and I missed it all just couldn't cope. But he did amazing things out it sweetie. I decided to write my feelings down and wrote poems and bits my feelings. I was planning to get all the work I missed and try to catch up to the best of my ability before I finished the class. Anyway I came back to class asked for the work showed the teacher what I had done and most of the home I done at home Praise God. I had 2 weeks to end so I had one week to get all the work done. Some stuff I didn't understand but that was kl the stuff I did while I was off covered it. She put it in my work. Yey. The other stuff I did. Was great. I got my story to final draft so it was great and she said "it was amazing how well you did" it wasn't me I had someone with me getting me through that was just my course. My uncle I was upset and hoped he made it to heaven. So that was hard for me. Then another amazing story with my cat. My vats name was Rosie God brought a dog my way called Josie. I had prayed previously for my other dog to find a friend she could play with while I go out evangelising as the cat was lazy. My neighbours friend died he had 2 dogs and both were ill treated as his friend was an alcoholic. So they weed and poohed around the house didn't get fed and walked ectra. So his friend asked his to take care of them but he couldn't cope. So I prayed over it and said to God " the dogs have been through so much give him the strength to look after them or home them together so they can see each other and we can see them too. Little did I know God had a plan. 😂😂😂 I ended up having one I am his neighbour on one side and the other neighbour had the other dog on the other side. 😵🤪🥰 I rang pdsa about my cat they said get some meds so I did. No joy So I rang again they said bring her in by this time the lump was so bad. My neighbour took me he had lots on I said go home and get on I will be OK getting back he said no I will wait. God knew what was coming. I took her in and they took her assessed her and said there nothing they could do. It broke me 😭😭😭 the staff got my friend in the car and I put her down and came home with out her.😭😭😭 BUT GOD just before this a few days or so I went out in garden spoke to neighbour about dogs and I said "I will take in Josie". I DIDN'T SAY IT THE HOLY SPIRIT DID. I was like yeah I suppose I can take her so that night I took her in. 3 days later my cat died. 😭😭😭 God helped my other dog she had company too. Afterwards I released it was God taking care of me her name being Josie and my cat names Rosie I new it was God watching over me. He is with you sweetie and helping you through we just don't always see it at the time. 🙏🙏🙏 Take care God bless you. Xxx
Even I can't feel Him, He is always with me. ❤❤❤
He is with me always, every minuet, every second no matter what.
I can pray easier and am happy with his presence
for the record , I feel the Lord every single day of my life, even when I was fallen and in sin, now walking in holiness his presence is amazing even more, some times its so strong that I feel like I'm going to die or my heart is going to explode, I can not help it cry , without noticing I'm showered in tears, not guilt ,not sadnes,yes happiness but it goes beyond human emotions, is hard to explain, but there is nothing in this world that gets even closer ,no human relationship,no drugs, nothing compares with Gods presence, maybe that's why David said his presence is better than life.

Bro that is so real. His presence is something I crave. Although he lives in me. When a dear friend knocks on the door and comes in it’s like that joy. To feel Him is amazing. He is our wonderful father. I think sometimes he doesn’t reveal himself (although always near) is to grow us. I think I’m my season of faith it’s about trusting Him even when I don’t feel Him. Jesus felt abandoned but He was faithful to the end. I think that is a beautiful model that The Lord is trying to shape us by. He wants deeper love and deeper trust. This hits so at home when David says his spirit pants like a deer for water when it comes to desiring the Lord. It’s so beautiful. It gives me hope in a quest season.

I DON'T REMEMBER WHAT THEY CALLED THAT, BUT I WAS CRYING HAPPY TEARS AND MY GRAM SAID SHE IS FEELING JESUS AND I WAS SO PROUD LOL AND THE NEXT WEEK I WENT UP AGAIN AND I SAID I WANT TO FEEL JESUS'S HUG AGAIN PLEASE LOL 😂😂! THEY ALL THOUGHT IT WAS CUTE AND COMING FROM A ABUSIVE CHILDHOOD BY MY MOM AND DAD IN SOME REAL BAD WAYS, IT WAS SO NICE FEELING THAT. I KNOW HE WAS WITH ME IN THE BASEMENT AND CLOSETS WHEN I WAS PUT IN THEM , OR OUT IN THE CAR IN THE WINTER AFTER MY STEP DAD THREW ME OUT AT 4,5,6 AND ON AND I KNEW SOMEONE WAS WITH ME KEEPING ME SAFE. I GOT BAPTIZED AT 13 IN WATER AT A LAKE AND I FELT IT REAL STRONG! BUT I FELT HIM SO MANY MANY TIMES ALL THROUGH THESE YEAR'S AND I TRY TO TELL PPL HOW GREAT IT FEELS BUT MOST THINK IT'S IN MY HEAD😂! YEAH RIGHT! I KNOW FOR A FACT IT'S NOT IN MY HEAD! IT'S 10000000%REAL! GOD BLESS YOU❤

I can relate. I worry too much & find it hard to relax. But, fear not, for our Heavenly Father, Jehovah, will take care of us! Matthew 6:25-36
This encapsulates my condition PRECISELY! I am a born again, follower of Christ. But I AM caught up in and distracted by guilt, shame and lack of confidence coming before the Lord...asking Him to heal me. I'm experiencing a GREAT DEAL of fear over my situation. YES! That's where I'm having trouble! Impatience and frustration while waiting for Him. Also, not knowing what to step out in faith in to. Thank you and God bless you for sharing this! I've been trying to make a point to ask for prayer at every opportunity. So, I'd like to ask all who may come upon this, to lift me up to Our Heavenly Father in prayer, for healing from my severe neuropathy and from its underlying cause, diabetes. Your prayers are GREATLY appreciated!! God bless you all!
My Lord is with me and watches over me, despite how I feel. I’m 100% sure of my faith about that.
He is with me….He will never abandon me to the realms of the death…amen

Read the Word out loud, Faith comes by hearing. Hide his word in your heart. Pray without ceasing. The enemy wants you to feel alone and unwell. Pray Gods promises to us aloud to Him. He is your healing, he gives you a sound mind. Walk in obedience, take thoughts captive to the obedience of Christ. Remember you’re never alone. I have had a real toxic situation that God has brought me out of. I cherish freedom, even though there is shame in divorce. Jesus is my husband and my provider. He will be all you need
He is WITH me now. He is with us always. He is with me always
Even if I don’t feel God, he is with me
