Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. –Philippians 4:6 NIV
There are moments in our lives when we get worried and stressed, thinking “How will I get out of this circumstance?” or “Jesus, I feel stuck.” Proverbs 3:5-6 (NIV) says “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and not lean on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.” God sees where you are, and He hears your prayers. Trust Him and lean on Him, knowing that He is in control. He is with you in the midst of your trials. There is nothing that can come between you and God unless you allow yourself to listen to the lies of the enemy. Jesus wants you to lean on him. Therefore, come to Him, even if things are hard. Praise Him and thank Him for all that He has done for you. No matter what comes your way, remember that God is in control.
Father, I pray that even when I am anxious, I will remember that You are in control.
Lord, help me to stop relying on my own understanding, and instead to trust You in all circumstances.
