When we allow anxiety and worry to control our thoughts, we become weary. God does not want us to be anxious or worried over anything. He invites us to give those burdens over to Him, with the assurance nothing is too small or too big for the Lord to handle.
By reading His Word we come to understand, what concerns us concerns Him. A simple concept but one that’s true. The Bible says we are the apple of God’s eye and He takes great delight in us. We are all His favorites, He loves us all the same.
I Peter 5:7 (NIV) says, “Cast all your anxieties on him for he cares about you.” Notice is says all, which means everything. We are to give whatever is making us anxious or worried over to the Lord and not take it back. We can put our hope and trust in Him, and relax.
Remember; yesterday is gone, never to return again. The Bible says each day will have enough troubles of its own. Instead of being anxious, we can ask the Lord to give us the strength to get through the day. We can allow His peace and love to fill our hearts and minds. We can relax, and let Him take care of us; He has everything under control.
Thank you Lord for your love and concern over every detail of my life. I can be anxious for nothing, because You have it all under control. I trust You to work everything out for my good, in Your time and way.
