Days of sweetness...
Today is a day of thanksgiving. Yesterday was a day for concern. Every day brings new opportunities to believe God and take Him at His Word. My heart was at peace, though my mind was telling me of all that could be, but I kept reminding myself who has the final say.
For Jesus to come and for me to ignore His presence would have made for an anxiety- ridden 18 hours. I had a choice to listen to Who I am sure of, Who's words are true, completely reliable. "Let not your heart be troubled. You believe in God, believe also in Me...Peace I leave with you, my peace I give to you: not as the world giveth, give I to you. Let not your heart be troubled,
neither let it be afraid." John 14:1, 27
Not every time I'm anxious do I turn so quickly in His direction. What restrains me?
Heaven knows I'm not in control, but my head is not so quick to understand. Thankfully, every
day is another opportunity to trust Him. What am I saying?!! Every second is another opportunity to trust Him. He, who has promised, is able. It's the truth.
