Phil 4:7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
When it comes to the safety of the hubs and of the oldest on the trail, the safety of the youngest and of me at home, I have such peace about this entire adventure. It is truly a blessing to feel such peace because it is not my nature. I am so tremendously thankful to my Savior for blanketing me with His peace about these things.
Mark 9:24 Immediately the boy’s father cried out, “I do believe; help my unbelief!”
And on the heels of my praise, I have to confess the anxiety and stress that still clings to me about things that seem so small and insignificant, things that in the grand scheme of things I know will work out—or won’t—and life will move seamlessly forward regardless. So why do I worry, stress, and fret over the little things? Jesus, Help me.
Isaiah 26:3 The steadfast of mind You will keep in perfect peace, because he trusts in You.
Lord, Thank You for this day, for Your peace, which transcends all understanding, for the reminder that there are still areas of my life where I am choosing to stress about my circumstances instead of trust in You. I do believe, Lord, in Your power and sovereignty, Your goodness and mercy, Your fierce love for me. I don’t want to hold anything back from You, Lord. Help me to lay ALL my burdens at Your feet, even those that feel too silly and insignificant to bother You with. Wrap me in Your peace. I do believe, Lord; help my unbelief. Draw me closer. Amen.
Proverbs 3:5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart….
Have a blessed day.
My faith, my life, my teaching–it's all a work in progress.
