I have to do a great deal of staying on my life’s journey. This statement, “We don’t have to be strong to stay. We just have to be willing” is so true. God gives us what we need. He really does.

These words were just what I needed to be reminded of tonight. My OneWord for this year has felt like an odd choice: “with.” But He is making it so clear that He is staying, He is WITH me, with all of us, in these places where we feel so separated. I certainly don’t feel that I am WITH those I love, but Jesus is the one who stays, and brings us together WITH Him. Thank you so much for sharing this.

the concept of ” Sometimes it’s easier to run away than stay.” so was me this week. I was done with all this, angry at everything and ready to give up but staying is where God has placed us to learn, to linger, and to be shaped. good thoughts, Lisa!

Your words push the though even deeper. Instead of running away from my anxious thoughts or temporary fears, I need to sit in it and listen for God’s still small voice.

My first thought from the title was my caregiving journey. I had no choice but to stay with it, but one of my regrets is that I chafed under it instead of willingly accepting it. But God is teaching me from it even now.
