Times of Trust

Being fully surrendered to Christ is easy when things are all lined up, but it's when things look grim that the real test comes. When times are tough and it looks like real trouble ahead, do we continue to trust or do we freak out and try to control the situation?! When all the bills are due, there's no gas in the car, and you have no where to lay your head...what do you do?! Personally, I choose to praise God for all that I KNOW He is about to do! If we worry, do the bills get paid? If we panic, does it gas the car? Of course not! If we stress, all we get is high blood pressure, headaches, and wrinkles...not solutions! The Word says, "Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?" (Matthew 6:27) It's so very true! Worrying does nothing but give the enemy the upper hand! However, if we choose to praise and give God glory through the trial, regardless of the outcome, we win! Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, 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 minds in Christ Jesus! (Philippians 4:6-7) We are His children, and we need not worry for anything! Whatever it is that's causing you stress and anxiety today, give it up! Some may say, "easier said than done", but I say, "easier done than undone!"
Run with me church!
