“Search me, God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. See if there is any offensive way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.” Psalm 139:23-24 NIV

God helps us examine our lives. He humbles us. And, when we find courage to recognize why we accumulate worry, He fills us with a heart of hope and shows us what needs to be surrendered. 

Anxious thoughts accumulate in crevasses of doubt. They rob us of making room for Jesus. But, when we choose to be led where peace is found, He shows us the way to the Father. He handles our anxiety, when we recognize we need the strength of His love. 

God provides everything we need! He nurtures a heart of trust. We must TRUST in the One who makes us whole and heals our wounds of worry. He will lead us to a place of calm and remove our fears. He will help us remember; Joy WILL return, when we allow PEACE to remain where it belongs.

Dear God, Thank you for waking us to another day. We feel Your presence of peace. Show us how to examine our hearts, so we will recognize how to surrender to You. Remove anxious thoughts, so there will be room for peace to dwell. We will find strength in the power of Your presence and understand why we MUST ALWAYS TRUST in YOU. Amen
