Worrying, sad to say has been a crucial part of my life. I worry too much for things to come, worse even things that has come to pass. I don't know, but it is the easiest escapegoat for fear of the unknown. It's part of my daily life no matter how hard I try not to. Luckily, I received an email this morning from Joel Osteen, a verse that talks about trust in God and why we need not to worry..
Let me share with you his message today.
"Are you struggling with trying to make a dream come to pass? Are you frustrated in a relationship, trying to make someone else change or live right? You may mean well, you may have good goals, but if you are trying to orchestrate things to happen your way on your timetable, you are only going to frustrate yourself. At some point, you have to turn those circumstances over to God and trust that He has your best interest at heart."
"How do you turn things over to God? Start by making the choice and declaring your resolve. Simply say, “Father, I choose to let You be God of this situation. I take my hands off. I trust You.” Then, choose to worship Him. Worship is one of the best ways to set your heart and mind in the right place. You can’t worry and worship at the same time! Worship is a sign that you are trusting God; worry is a sign that you are trying to control things."
"Today, take the pressure off of yourself and turn things over to God. Give Him control and let Him take your setbacks and turn them into comebacks. Remember, the God who holds the universe holds you in the palm of His hand. Trust Him and let God be God in every area of your life!"
What a relief! I only need to put in mind and heart my trust in God and let go of every fears and worries I have! Let him take control of our lives! Let Him be GOD!
