CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Stress and anxiety are tough to deal with and I feel like I’ve been dealing with more than usual worrying about my 16-year old daughter, the charity I lead (never enough money), and wondering if I’m fully serving my purpose on this Earth.

I know I shouldn’t worry or be stressed but I am.  The scripture below is comforting and I trust things will be OK.

  • “The Lord is on my side; I will not fear.” Psalm 118:6.
  • “Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.” Psalm 23:4.
  • “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God” Romans 3:23
  • “Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?” Matthew 6:27.
  • “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding.” Proverbs 3:5.
  • “But Jesus looked at them and said to them, ‘With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.’” Matthew 19:26.
  • “Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.” Matthew 11:28-30.
  • “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.” Jeremiah 29:11.
  • “And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:19.

14 Pax showed up this morning with one FNG, Six Pack!
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Many people make goals and think that they are on the right track to reach those goals when, in reality, they are doing all of the wrong things. At one point when I was trying to get fit, I thought I was eating really well. There was a day or two when I was really busy or had some other excuse and I stopped for food, but I wrote those off as unimportant because overall I was doing good. When I looked at my bank account, I realized that I had a lot more fast food than I thought. Because my focus was on the few good things I was doing and I made excuses for the many bad things, my mind believed that I was on track. I encourage you to not only make goals, but to examine your progress on those goals in a realistic way. Spend 5 or 10 minutes focusing only on your progress towards those goals and do it often.
