This has been a very full week.
This week has been very full of good things,
necessary things,
important things,
Godly things.
But....
...this week I have been very stressed out.
I sat on the couch tonight and told my mom "I don't think it's God's plan for us to live life this stressed out."
Then I read a blog written by a dear friend and this is what she posted:
{A life of fear is not what I have called you to. Insecurities were never meant to be your best friend. Worry should never trap you in a love/hate relationship. You ask "Who's going to take care of me?" ME! I am. I'm your Father. I know your needs along with your desires. You're not an inconvenience to me!-God}
Then I was reminded of what Jesus had to say about all this:
"Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light." ~Matt. 11:28-30
So it turns out, I was right. All this worrying and stressing and running around like a crazy person ISN'T God's plan. As usual, He has a better one.
He wants me to trust Him.
He wants me to follow Him & let Him lead.
He wants me to rest in His peace.
He wants me to NOT be concerned about what others think.
He Wants Me...All of Me...All of My Love...All of My Heart
.I am yours Jesus.
