Shine On Regardless

You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you. Isaiah 26:3

So I drove two hours to a speciality clinic for a doctor appointment( fear not nothing is wrong). When I arrived even though I had marked two calendars plainly with the time and date I  was told I did not have an appointment. I could choose to be like the world and rant, rave and be demanding or I could stay at peace and go with the flow. Things often happen for a reason. I chose peace and joy.

When the unexpected happens to you is the tendency to pop a cork or do you choose to remain calm? God operates in calmness and Satan lurks around like a roaring lion seeking to get you steamed up and act less than Christlike. You feel better when you can just flow with the punches so to speak. 

Whatever test or unexpected happening is on your horizon be prepared to react like Jesus would and let His love flow out of you. As the saying goes "You may be the only Bible someone may ever 'read'."

PRAYER: I choose this day to turn to you when I would rather scream. I choose to love instead of hate. I choose to pray when I would rather scream. In Jesus' name. Amen.
