Faith,  Life and Whatnot

DO NOT FEAR


Where do you find your solace?

I find mine from God and from Charlie (my sweet hubby). God says “Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, 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 Jesus.” Philippians 4:6-7.

No, that verse does NOT say everything will work out all peachy, nobody will get hurt, or we won’t suffer a bit. It does say that the Peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard our hearts……That’s where I find my peace.

Another sweet verse is: “Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?” Luke 12:25. We could spend our time and energy worrying, but what will that do? Not that we should just sit back and let bad things happen, no, but by worrying, how will that help? I just get a heck lot more anxious when I stew over things I can’t control. Yeah, and I’m a control freak…

So, hang in and press on. God Bless!
