“Cast your cares on the Lord and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous be shaken.”
Psalms 55:22
How are you feeling today? Are you anxious or scared? Concerned?
There are so many things happening in our world, we can become any of the emotions I mention above. One thing or maybe I should say person that can help us when we have these feelings is God. Whenever we are facing difficulties that is too much for us to handle on our own, God tells us to put the weight of our worries on him. God will carry us through and walk along side us through every situation we face!!
The Holy Spirit continues to offer is to lean into our Godship throughout history. He is so faithful. Jesus in Matthew 11:28-30 says, ““Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”” He is even inviting us to lean into God. Are you having restless night because of you worries? You don’t have to when you trust in Hod and let him take care of you. I am not saying it will be easy but it is a choice you get to make! To trust God or not with your worries?! Don’t sit and dwell on the situation. Pray, yes!! However, don’t allow yourself to dwell there in worry!
Peter told the followers of Christ to humble themselves towards God and cast all our anxiety into him. Peter told us that because Hod cares for us. Paul challenges us to take all our worries to God in prayer. Paul promised that Hod’s peace will guard our hearts and minds against our worries, anxiety, discouragement and fears.
Whatever you are facing, trust God to take care of you.
Dear Heavenly Father,
Thank you that you are the God in control of all things. Help us not to worry or stress about our future. I pray that we trust you in all things. I pray for your protection for every person. I also pray for healing for those who are sick!
In Jesus Name
Amen
