A few days ago I snapped this picture of Charlie in his mama's arms. He had been laying like this for quite some time. Look in his eyes. What do you see? Worry, or contentment - and peace?
Fret and worry is an indication that we have stopped trusting in God's wisdom, sovereignty, and power. We have forgotten that behind the scenes the Lord still has His arms around us. Difficulties are within God's plan, but we are to never stop trusting. Delighting in the Lord with thanksgiving is the antidote for anxiety. We need to drench our minds and hearts with the truths of God's Word. We need to replace the anxious thoughts with true thoughts. Fretting is filling our minds with what could happen or should happen. Getting rid of anxiety can be a real battle sometimes. Don't give up. Obedience to God's Word always brings blessing. Keep drenching your heart and mind in the Word. When we do, the peace comes...
