DON'T WORRY! That's right, I'm talkin' to you! Actually, I'm talking to myself as well.
One thing that I have battled my whole life was worrying. It seems so hard not to let our minds wander into the dark night of fear. But, it's a good thing that we have control over what we think. If that were not true, then God wouldn't tell us what to think about...
"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things." (Philippians 4:8 KJV)
This command is a way to peace. If you want peace in your life, learn to direct the way you think...
"Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you." (Philippians 4:9 KJV)
No matter what is going on in life, with all the busyness and mess, look to Jesus. Be still and know that He is God. I'm talking to myself, too. Jesus is the One True God and He holds it all.
There is actually something I ask myself quite often that just smacks me right in the face everytime:
"Why am I worrying?! I mean come on, Kristin!!! The God of all the universe is holding you! He created you! He has this! GOD's GOT THIS!!!!"
We have peace if we take hold of the reins of our mind! The mind can be wild, but we have the power and authority to move it in the direction that we want it to go! We are called into FREEDOM! There is no reason why we should worry. Worrying doesn't do anything good for us. Worry makes matters worse. So before you go worrying about that too, take a deep breath and say "Thank You, Jesus." He has this. Let us BE STILL AND KNOW THAT HE IS GOD.
Jesus, thank You so much for this much needed wisdom. There is so much we can learn and gain from Your Word. Teach us to go Your way, show us how to get there, and between now and then let us gird up the loins of our mind and step out in victory in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth! Jesus, You have called us into FREEDOM! I rebuke the devil away from us in Jesus name! Show us how to LOVE LIKE YOU LOVE US! Free us from fear and doubt in the name of Jesus Christ! I rebuke the devil away from us in the name of JESUS! YOU WILL KNOW THE TRUTH AND THE TRUTH SHALL MAKE YOU FREE! WHOM THE SON SETS FREE IS FREE INDEED! HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU JESUS! I plead the blood of Jesus Christ over every reader in Jesus name and there situations in life in Jesus name! You are the Way, the Truth, and the Life so Jesus make our way perfect! WE CHOOSE TO TRUST IN YOU, JESUS! I send angels to protect and minister unto all of these readers and their families in Jesus name! Give us what we need to grow in You, Lord. IN JESUS NAME I PRAY, AMEN!
