Don’t worry about anything, but pray and ask God for everything you need, always giving thanks for what you have. And because you belong to Christ Jesus, God’s peace will stand guard over all your thoughts and feelings. His peace can do this far better than our human minds. Philippians 4:6-7 ERV

Christ meets us where we are. He extends His arms of hope and longs for us to hold on tight. Sometimes, we make Him reach too far. We waste time worrying and forget to faithfully trust. But, our loving Savior watches over us. He tugs at the heart of our weakness and longs to lift us from the weary places of our lives. 

When we open our hearts to His greatness, we begin to realize Jesus guides us to the Father. As we’re humbled by His presence in our lives, He arms us with His strength. He shows us how to find His peace and reminds us not to worry about our lives. He fills us with the power of His love and helps us focus on Him. 

God has already planned the happenings of our days. He knows what will happen next. He readies us to feel the calm of His presence and longs for us to welcome strength.

There will never be a day without God. He is here! He is near to the heart of our needs and He knows EVERYTHING about us. He's a good, good Father!

Dear God, Thank you for the week ahead. Thank you for moments to be lifted by Jesus. We will trust in the power of Your love and respond to the tugging of our hearts. We will fill ourselves full of perfect peace and take time to remember; we will never be without the presence of Your love. Help us find purpose in the happenings of our days, so we will not forget why we must always, ALWAYS TRUST. Amen
