Day 13: Peacefully Anxious
Today I will be
Anxious
about everything, in every circumstance.
I won't talk to God about what is bothering me.
I won't ask Him to do anything about it.
I will continue to complain.
I will focus on whatever is false, unwholesome, wrong, impure, ugly, and unworthy,
& then I will be
Anxious
about everything, in every circumstance...
Therefore I won't talk to God about what is bothering me.
I won't ask Him to do anything about it.
I will continue to complain.
I will focus on whatever is false, unwholesome, wrong, impure, ugly, and unworthy.
Hmmm...
I guess I will always be
Anxious
My choice.
What are you anxious about?
How do you try to get rid of it?
What if I told you~
"Do Not Be"
Anxious?
Do the words, "Do Not Be", carry the power to take away your anxiety?
Actually, they bring more anxiety to me,
because it is so hard "not to be" in the midst
of being
Anxious.
But God
just doesn't tell us to
Do Not Be~
He desires to be part of the process.
What happens when I do it His Way?
What happens when you do it His Way?
Let's see~
Today I will
Not Be Anxious About Anything,
No matter the circumstance
because
I will talk to God about what is bothering me.
I will ask Him to do something about it.
I will thank Him for all He has done and for all who He is.
I will focus on whatever is true, noble, right, pure, lovely, and admirable.
Then the
Peace of God
that transcends all understanding
Will
guard my heart
and mind
in
Christ Jesus. Philippians 4
His Peace
overrides Anxiety.
Peace~
with God, because of Jesus Christ,
that is beyond anything that you could ever imagine
when it covers your anxious heart.
Peace~
in the midst of a storm.
Peace~
in the midst of pain.
Peace~
in the midst of the unknown~
His Peace~
crushes
Anxiety
when you look to
the One who
will take you beyond
Do Not Be.
Therefore,
let's
Fast
from the weight of
Anxiety~
God's Way,
&
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.
Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. "
Philippians 4:6-8
