CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Phillipians 4:7

The Q shared 5 practical steps that have helped him battle the “kaos” of life and cultivate an inner peace that surpasses understanding:

1. Surrender to total trust in Christ – this settles once and for all the ultimate question of where you will spend eternity.

2. Believe God’s sovereignty rules over all, including your life (all over the Bible).  This removes any fear or anxiety about your life and what happens to you.

3. Trust the Lord to meet all of your needs. This eliminates all concerns with not having enough.

4. Maintain a clear conscience. This protects the inner peace that you have.

5. Accept the way God made you. This prevents the stress and anxiety of trying to change things beyond your control.

2019 has been a tough year among our F3 brotherhood – we have dealt with illness, injury, death.  In light of that and also in light of the Christmas season I decided to share several scriptures of encouragement to remind us that GOD is ultimately in control and we can find our rest in him.
