• Anxious for Nothing… ahem…

  Be anxious for nothing. Be anxious for nothing. Be anxious for nothing.

  Almost everything is easier said than done. When you’re standing in the storm and the straight line winds are wailing on you, it is tough to be tough. Life is full of storms. Some of them weigh heavier on our hearts. Others weigh heavier on our shoulders. Stress is a dirty word and an awful obnoxious feeling. It causes us to under eat, over eat, loose sleep, and/or loose focus. I do rely on God. I know that no matter how tough the storm is, marriage, family, financial, sickness, or unemployment, it will be weathered with His grace and His mercies. I know that good can and does come out of hopeless and difficult situations. I know that with God nothing has to be hopeless. I know that focusing on Him and not my problems has helped me weather numerous storms. Having a positive attitude is really crucial to perseverance. But, lets be honest here. We are going to have moments where we feel discouraged or momentarily defeated. We are human it is inevitable. I just take a deep breath, maybe have a mild rant, surrender, pray, and trust God. I may have to do it again 5 minutes later, but that’s okay. Everyday has the potential for storms, but it’s what we do when we see the clouds coming that will define us.

  Peace, love, and Jesus,
