Trust Me!

A few years ago, Josh bought me the most beautiful book. It is a devotional book and even after a few years, it touches my heart daily. We tease each other, because it never gets old. It seems though it was written just for me! (or I like to pretend that anyways :) I feel like it is so easy to let the world get to us. We get so wrapped up in our problems from day to day. We get hurt by others, hurt by situations. Some things seem so out of our control and you know what?? They are. I have found the most amazing joy and peace through Christ recently, one like I have never known. When you stand before God and give him yourself, your whole heart, your whole life, nothing, I mean nothing can shake that! No matter what is going on around you, what ever circumstance, what ever relationship, what ever the situation, please just give it to God. Not just a piece of it, all of it, all of you! Nothing is too mighty for him! We are over comers, conquers through him. When we stand before him, we hide nothing, he sees and knows all. He knows are needs before we even ask, he sees every tear we have cried. When you feel like no one cares and you are alone. You are not. He holds every tear in his powerful hands. Trust those hands, hold tight and NEVER give up! Now that I have shared my heart with you today, here is the devotion from that little book Josh got me, I pray it touches you, encourages you to look up some scripture and know nothing is an accident! You are exactly where you need to be today!

Trust Me in the midst of a messy day. Your inner calm- your Peace in My Presence- need not be shaken by what is going on around you. Though you live in this temporal world, you innermost being is rooted and grounded in eternity. When you start to feel stressed, detach yourself from the disturbances around you. Instead of desperately striving to maintain order and control in you little world, relax and remember that circumstances cannot touch My Peace! Seek My Face, and I will share My mind with you, opening your eyes to see things from My perspective. DO NOT LET YOU HEART BE TROUBLED, and do not be afraid. The Peace I give is more than sufficient for you!
