Thursday, May 3, 2012

Trust requires unanswered questions.  If we do not accept this fact, then we will experience nothing but frustration.  Frustration in the "not knowing" of God's plan for your life, frustrated while waiting for unanswered prayers. You can make yourself sick with stress if you allow yourself to worry about the not knowing. The moment you feel frustrated ask yourself, "what can I do to maintain my joy during this trial?"  What can we do to ease the anxiety while riding the storm?  I choose to stay in the moment. I choose not to dwell on what I don't have but instead focus on what I do have. My worrying will not speed up God therefore I don't allow myself to get that way. I need to just be blessed for today, be grateful for the day and live in it with peace and joy. I make the choice to be grateful for everyday, no matter what my circumstances are.  I know it is easier said than done, but it is vital to for your spiritual health and your mental/physical self.  It is very easy to praise the Lord when everything is going perfect and your life is on track but for those that are experiencing life's hardships, it is very difficult to smile through the pain and angst.  The Lord wants us to trust in Him enough to let go and let Him.  To be anxious for nothing and pray for everything.  I lift you up in prayer and I ask the Lord to guide you and keep you in His watchful eye during this difficult season. I ask that you draw your strength from Him and know that nothing is impossible for our Lord.  That what we see as a hopeless situation, God sees as an opportunity. So today rest in Him, have faith in the blood of the Lamb and know know know that He loves you and will reveal all to you in His perfect timing. Until then, love Him and find joy in all things.  Amen and amen.
