Live Lightly

Daily Blessing

May the peace of God—right now—calm your anxious heart. May the presence of God—this very moment—bring peace to your troubled soul. When anxiety surges and emotions swell, may you discern the source and grab hold of the truth. Sometimes the best thing you can do is to step out of your current frame of mind and do something altogether different. Dance. Sing. Watch a funny movie. Go for a walk. Better yet, worship Jesus with reckless abandon. You're not at the mercy of those moments. You don't have to stay there. So rise up from there and remember who you are. You'll get through the surge, and you'll smile again. You'll get to the other side and feel "normal" again. So don't let those anxious moments swallow up your day. You have tools in your toolbox. You have the living, breathing Word of God. And you have the Holy Spirit within you to guide you through every twist and turn of your journey. You'll get through this. 

Philippians 4:6-7 (NLT) ~ Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.
