Psalm 94:19 (NKJV) 19 In the multitude of my anxieties within me, Your comforts delight my soul.
Our grandson is a thinker. He is only 13, but yet he thinks about things that most adults don’t even think about.
Because of this thinking, sometimes he doesn’t sleep well. This is especially true if there is change.
I said to him one day, “God does not like for us to worry. Because when we worry, it makes a statement and shows our fear”.
As I continued, I said, “it’s OK to be afraid and notice that we are afraid. But when we feel the fear of the unknown, or even the known, we don’t freeze, but we take the next step”.
This “next step” we take is huge!
We say, “Dear God, I’m scared. Help me know that everything will be alright as long as You are near. Take this fear and give me Your peace. Help me. In Jesus’ name. Amen.”
If anxiety hits us, it is not to stay long. When we notice it, we need to get rid of it quickly. It will eat us up and leave us exhausted if it lingers.
God will bring us comfort and peace in the midst of change, in the midst of a storm or in a trial.
In the midst of decision making, He will comfort our soul.
Don’t stress. God is faithful to take care of us.
