Day 20: What's Next
I had a restless night
even though I had a peaceful day.
I was not worried, or anxious or fearful,
yet there was an unrest in me.
Was I awaiting subconsciously for the
WHAT'S NEXT ?
You know what I am talking about~.
THE WHAT'S NEXT
question that doesn't have a real answer,
because it hasn't happened yet.
THE WHAT'S NEXT that turns into
THE WHAT IF
because that is what is causing
THE UNREST.
I thought I was exempt.
Hmm, sounds a bit prideful, rather a lot prideful,
because I forgot about my human side that churns up inside
when I least expect it
striving to steal HIS PEACE
that transcends all understanding.
So last night while I was trying to sleep
I tossed & turned
without even a thought in my head,
so it must have been
THE WHAT'S NEXT & THE WHAT IFS
that were striving to take me captive
to steal GOD's PEACE
by striving to become
FEAR & ANXIETY~
BUT HIS PEACE can't be stolen
BUT HIS HOPE can't be be hijacked
BUT HIS JOY can't be kidnapped
because
"HE who is in you is greater than he who is in the world" (I John 4:4).
Oh how subtle
THE WHAT'S NEXT & THE WHAT IFS
come out of nowhere
especially in the midst of sleep
BUT there is always
THE STILLNESS OF GOD
that over rides every
WHAT 'S NEXT & WHAT IF
because
GOD IS & JESUS IS & THE HOLY SPIRIT IS
bigger & bolder & beyond every
WHAT'S NEXT & WHAT IF
that is created in our minds
because
"HE who is in you is greater than he who is in the world"
HE Who is in you is greater than every
WHAT'S NEXT &WHAT IF
scenario that you may be creating in your mind
because those scenarios are
FEAR based
causing
ANXIETY
that forgets about
HIS LOVE
because
"GOD has not given us a spirit of fear,
but of power and of love and of a sound mind" (2 Timothy 1:7)
So WHAT IF
the answer to
THE WHAT'S NEXT
question is
GOD & JESUS & THE HOLY SPIRIT~
would there be any room for
FEAR & ANXIETY?
Thank you GOD for waking me up,
after a restless night
reminding me that
YOU are THE WHAT'S NEXT
YOU are THE WHAT IF
because
YOU ARE always YOU
and that is the
STILLNESS OF GOD
that can't be stolen
because
"GOD has not given us a spirit of fear,
but of power and of love and of a sound mind" (2 Timothy 1:7)
So why should we believe otherwise?
What WHAT NEXT & WHAT IF scenario have you created in your mind
that is creating more UNREST during this time of UNREST?
Let's FAST from UNREST
and FIX OUR EYES on HIS STILLNESS
because
"YOU are here Moving in our midst"
