And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise. Philippians 4:8 NLT

Christ covers us with everything we need to feel the heart of His love. He brings PEACE in His presence and helps us examine our lives. He allows us to see what happens when we let go of doubt and witness what happens when we TRUST. 

He helps us recognize what’s holding us back from welcoming what He provides. We have been created to find purpose in the power of God’s plan. But sometimes anxiety rules our thoughts. Fear grows where it doesn’t belong. Worry steals our calm and we forget to stay focused on Jesus.  

The Bible says, “Cast your burden on the Lord, and He shall sustain you; He shall never permit the righteous to be moved” (Psalm 55:22) God guides and provides. We don’t have to live without Him. He recognizes our longing to be free from worry and helps us remain faithful and TRUST.  

As we bravely surrender doubt, God helps us welcome the gifts of His greatness and embrace a heart of praise. As we allow ourselves to be led by Christ, we recognize how to be restored. Nothing is too BIG to cast upon the Lord. He is ready and able to give us STRENGTH. 

God will love us through frailties and arm us with everything we need to walk in the fullness of love. He will open our hearts to remember why He is a GOOD, GOOD Father. We will find rest in Him when we bravely follow Jesus and faithfully walk in truth.   

Dear God, Thank you for Your love. Help us never be afraid to admit WHY we need you. We will release our worries and welcome JOY to replace our doubt. Help us focus on what IS GOOD, so we will embrace a grateful heart and recognize what comes from surrender. Thank you for Jesus! He brings calm to our hearts as we sit for a while and welcome compassion and love. Thank you for the power of Your greatness. Thank you for PEACE in Your presence. It heals us in mighty ways. Amen
