God Has It Figured Out...Relax

Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-7

Have you ever tried to play God? You know, trying to figure things out, doing the ‘what if’ game. Often you can waste so much energy trying to figure stuff out when in fact God has it and He has you. Expending energy and brain cells trying to figure it out is useless so don’t do it. 

What makes you do this? Well for me it is cause I am anxious for an answer to a prayer and wish it could be rushed up a bit. Settling down and waiting on God and His plan after you have prayed is the route to take. Sometimes depending on the situation this is extremely hard to do and requires immense discipline. 

Do your best and trust God for the rest is something I heard which makes a good deal of sense. Don’t keep asking why, when, how but be still and wait then be amazed! 

PRAYER: Father sometimes it is so hard to not worry but what good does it do. It is also hard to be quiet and not mess up your work with my needless words. Help me be still. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
