Leaning into Jesus

Last night two of my friends got a call that their mom was in the hospital. She’s in a long, slow battle with Alzheimer’s, and her body and mind are struggling. They’re grappling with a painful new reality, leaning into Jesus, and grieving as they try to figure out next steps. This is a path they’ve never walked before, and it’s heartbreaking for their whole family.

As I was praying for them, I also spent time praying for you. I don’t know what path you’re on these days…if it’s everything you expected it to be or if you’ve ended up in uncharted territory with surprise detours along the way, but God wants to be your guide, your comforter, your leader, and your strong support.

This is what He says to those who will press into Him:

“Your own ears will hear Him.
Right behind you a Voice will say,
‘This is the way you should go,’
whether to the right or to the left.”
– Isaiah 30:21

He knows just where you find yourself on your journey, and He promises to walk with you and lead you every step of the way if you’ll let Him.

I’m so proud of my friends for leaning into Jesus. You can lean into Him, too.
