Stay:To Remain With

Stay:To Remain With

Stay the course. Don’t get off track; keep your eyes on Me the author and finisher of your faith.

Don’t let setbacks discourage you. Start what you finished. Stay with me, baby, we’ll go far.

Won’t you stay…just a little bit longer…say you will

It’s hard to rest, to remain, to abide, to be still…I wonder…I wander…I want to move.

I find staying in one place difficult…but it is good for me, I know.

Slow down, pace yourself, you are trying way too hard…you have a choice

You can stay or go…but I’d rather you stay…simply be…enjoy this…trust…rest…be…

Please stay with Me….just a little bit longer…say you will

. . . weeping may stay for the night,
but rejoicing comes in the morning.

Psalm 30:5b NIV

Linking up with:

Five Minute Fridays, remain, stay, trust

Beautiful! Isn't it amazing how hard it is to stay – when it is what we most often need… to just stay in His Presence – to linger with Him – a little bit longer? Love this! ~Karrilee~

Thanks for stopping by! As soon as I read the word stay for today that song came into my mind…and then it seemed like an invitation from Jesus to remain with Him and trust especially when I feel restless.

"Stayed upon Jehovah, hearts are fully blessed." I'm stopping by from Lisa-Jo Baker's 5 minute Friday. Just started doing them, and enjoying it already. Blessings! ~Leah

Hahahaha. Our minds are too much alike. You think in songs and hear God, too? Perfect! I wish we were going to Jumping Tandem together!
