Worry can cause so many side effects…
anger… impatience.. isolation and sadness…Just to name a few….
Trying to control my surroundings reeks havoc in my mind, and unrest in my soul.
It’s those moments, when worry enters my mind, and my emotions start to control my behavior…
I have two choices…
Let my mind take over, or run to God’s word…
“The Lord says, “I will rescue those who love me.
I will protect those who trust in my name, when they call on my I will answer.
I will be with them in trouble. I will rescue them and honor them…”
Psalm 90:14-15
Lord, I am in trouble…
I don’t like the way I am acting or feeling…
I need You…
Oh Lord,
How sweet is Your Name…
My mind wants to help me solve each and every feeling that touches my heart…to overthink, control, and fix things..
I cry out to You for Your peace that transcends all understanding…
Your goodness and grace that fills me with truth..
Please, Oh Lord, still my mind that I will only see You…
“Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!”
Lord, my God, I rejoice in Your great love and redemption in my life…
By Your grace You reached down from heaven and held me near…
You cleansed my life…
You made me whole…
“Let your gentleness be evident to all.
The Lord is near.”
Please forgive me…
I am not trusting You…
unrest has filled my heart, and I don’t like the way I am treating my family…
“Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving present your requests to God…
“And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ…”
I am choosing, at this moment, to breathe in Your goodness… to lift my eyes toward heaven and to trust You…
You alone have my life and my days…
I will lay my worries at Your throne…
I will let them go…
All of them…
I will live in today covered by grace…
Filled with joy…
Because I am Your’s…
And You have my heart tightly in your hands…
May I leave the ugly mess of my thoughts crumbled at Your feet…
May I walk in peace…
I am so very thankful for such love, and such hope…
You redeemed my life…
You have my day…
I will love the ones I’m with …All for Your glory, and all for Your honor…
I will not fear…
In Jesus Name,
I pray,
Amen
Live in Love
