In today's fast paced world it is hard not to be anxious. As I struggle with particular personal hardships I find at times it can be difficult not to get anxious. When the bills start to come in I see more money going out than what came in. I look at the mountain in front of me and see Mount Everest. I try to find ways to fix it or make it go away. Every time I try I make it worse. I cannot seem to find the solution. Wisdom and intelligence in the world would view my situation as a failure.
God looks down and tells me you just need to step over the mole hill in front of you. Trust me, take my hand and I will help you over. I still struggle with letting go of the anxiety. Every time I take it back I ask God to remove it from me. Wisdom from God tells me to to just trust in Him. He has always provided in the past. I often tell Nancy, just as much for my sake as hers, that God has not failed us yet. He has not let us down or forgotten us in the past. So why would he start now. We both answer He wouldn't.
So I just remind myself He is in Control. God will be with me in all things. Then I can begin to let go of the anxiety. Then I begin to be thankful for all circumstances. I try to never boast or be prideful. All I have and all I can do is not of me BUT Christ in me. It is through Jesus that I can do all things set before me. It is through Christ that I can be successful not only in this world but spiritually as well...
