Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-7
It has been a couple of crazy weeks all over the world. A new disease has wreaked havoc on life as we know it. What to do? Nothing really. Pray yes. Fret and freak out no.
So how do you proceed with life that is a little messed up right now? Settle in temporarily to the new normal knowing this too shall pass. Guard your heart. Spend time in the word of God. Try to relax and not waste time worrying.
This is a strange scenario to have America practically out of commission but it also helps each of us to appreciate what we do have that many have gone day to day taking for granted. May each of us get down on our knees and thank God first for life, health, freedom, family, and yes all the blessings we enjoy but never really say thank you for.
PRAYER: Oh most merciful Father I love you and I love each and every day you bless me with. Help me to not just look at my own little world but to reach out beyond me. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
