For a while now I have found myself often thanking God that He is faithful to His promises for my life. Regardless of this praise, I recently realized that I rarely stop to consider what those promises actually are. So this past week I decided to document all of the promises I came across in my daily time in the Word. I did not specifically search for anything or change my habits in any way--I simply documented what God said. Reflecting on my list this morning, I felt inspired to share what one small week of promises looks like. I hope the list blesses you as much as it has blessed me. What a crazy, beautiful life He has for us!
