"You can not worry and worship at the same time" Thank you for reminding me Lord.
Just want to share with you this devotional I read on my mail from Joel Osteen. God spoke to me through this because He knows I've been worrying a lot in the past few days. Be blessed!

TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria
|
|
|
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 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!

A PRAYER FOR TODAY
|
|
|
| Father,
today I choose to release every care and concern into Your loving
hands. I refuse to worry and choose to trust. Fill me with Your peace.
Show me Your ways as I surrender every area of my heart and life to You
in Jesus’ name. Amen. |
