A devotional from Finding Calm in a Busy Day

Live Without Fear

Do you ever feel less than thankful for a situation you find yourself in, situations that give rise to fear? Maybe your son just quit college without giving you a reason why, or you lost your job without any notice or severance. Maybe you just got diagnosed with a serious illness, or you’ve been told you won’t be able to have a baby.

When everything feels topsy-turvy and you wonder what you’re going to do next, the answer is simple. You’re going to run to your Father in heaven and explain everything you know about the issue you face. Then you’re going to thank him. You’re going to thank him for helping work out a solution that’s perfect for you. You’re going to also thank him for his Spirit that he gives you so generously to help you in any situation.

Hang in there with God. He won’t let you down, and he’ll make sure you have what you need. Be thankful you have him to face whatever happens to you today.

 

 

Quiet the Waves

Lord, thank you for being there with me no matter what happens today. I put all my worries, all my joys, all my heart and life into your merciful hands. Amen.
