Why be an undercover Christian? Live life!
Dear Lord,
I will not let being anxious and nervous take away from the joy of my future. I will not let doubt ruin what you have given me. I keep my eyes focus on you lord and the more I begin to doubt, the more I focus my eyes on you.
Just a little prayer that I said as I woke up in the middle of the night dreading about a meeting that will be taking place. My lord controls all!
They say that the Lord works in mysterious ways. I would like to add that the Lord adds amusement in his ways. On Saturday, I had one of the most frustrating days in a long time. I was down, distraught, and confused. I started to question what I thought was my blessing and shouted at the top of my lungs “save me lord!” Suddenly, an opportunity presented itself and I quickly jumped at it. I was happy, I was excited and I thanked the lord for being able to look forward to something again.
Then something weird happened…the cause of the pain and frustration suddenly became a source of inspiration. I am sacrificing but again I felt like this is where I am suppose to be. But, what do I do now? I am happy where I am but what do I do now for the new doors that will be opening? Now all I can do is keep my eyes fixated on the lord above and hold on for what will be an exciting ride.
I love this saying and I love the sentiment that what is taken away is easily replaced with something better by our Lord. The only thing that raised my eyebrows with the saying is the word CAN. I believe that my King is the alpha and omega and what he takes away he WILL replace with something better. Thought?
We all have experienced it at one point in our life; staying up all night just dreading, worrying, be anxious about what tomorrow will bring. It may be a test you are not ready for, your kids making unwise choices, a marriage that is on unstable ground, the health of a loved one. Yes, these are all important events BUT these are events that are also impossible for you to manipulate by worrying about them. Why not just let go, and lay it all on the cross of our savior?
Have a blessed morning and a great start to the week! In Jesus name. Amen!
