\n1Pe 5:6<\/b>\u00a0<\/a><\/span>\u00a0Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you, casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>Psalms 55:22<\/b><\/span><\/a> <\/b>\u00a0\u00a0Cast your burden on the LORD, and he will sustain you; he will never permit the righteous to be moved.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/span>Matthew 6:25<\/b><\/span><\/a>\u00a0 <\/b>\u00a0\u00a0\u201cTherefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life,<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/span>Matthew 6:34<\/b><\/span><\/a> <\/b>\u00a0\u00a0\u201cTherefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/span>Luke 12:11-12<\/b><\/span><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0And when they bring you before the synagogues and the rulers and the authorities, do not be anxious about how you should defend yourself or what you should say,\u00a0\u00a0for the Holy Spirit will teach you in that very hour what you ought to say.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/span>Luke 12:22<\/b><\/span><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0 <\/b>\u00a0\u00a0And he said to his disciples, \u201cTherefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life,<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/span>Philippians 4:6<\/b><\/span><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0 <\/b>\u00a0\u00a0do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/span>Hebrews 13:5-6<\/b><\/span><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0Keep your life free from love of money, and be content with what you have, for he has said, \u201cI will never leave you nor forsake you.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0So we can confidently say, \u201cThe Lord is my helper; I will not fear; what can man do to me?\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
When God\u2019s glory came to dwell on Earth through His Son, Jesus Christ, the Prince of Peace, and made a way for us to find freedom from our sin and experience His presence and peace both now and forever when we believe, trust, rely, follow, and obey (in\/on) Him alone. And yet, all too often, life\u2019s busyness and struggles can take our focus off our Lord and Savior who brought peace and light to the darkness and chaos in the world.<\/p>\n
Self-reliance far to often is where we land in our thought process when struggles, trials, problems, and uncertainty come into our lives. We think that we can solve it ourselves or at the least we can google it and find a solution. Obviously this works for home and car maintenance. What do we do when we are hit with an unexpected death, struggling relationship, financial difficulty, lost employment, etc\u2026\u2026? The \u201cpeace\u201d we search for often eludes us in times of uncertainty, confusion, worry, and fear causing events or possible outcomes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
\nPsa 121:1-8<\/b>\u00a0<\/a><\/span>\u00a0I lift up my eyes to the hills. From where does my help come?\u00a0My help comes from the LORD, who made heaven and earth.\u00a0He will not let your foot be moved; he who keeps you will not slumber.\u00a0Behold, he who keeps Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.\u00a0The LORD is your keeper; the LORD is your shade on your right hand.\u00a0The sun shall not strike you by day, nor the moon by night.\u00a0The LORD will keep you from all evil; he will keep your life. \u00a0The LORD will keep your going out and your coming in from this time forth and forevermore.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
When we are born again God sends and fills us with the Holy Spirit who will guide, encourage, teach, correct, convict, and lead us. I am not sure how this all works, but I do know that time in God\u2019s Word and prayer opens our hearts and minds to the Holy Spirit quiets whispers and shouts.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
Neglecting God\u2019s Word will always result in a drifting away from trust and reliance in God, and lead us to self-reliance.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
God\u2019s Word gives us precious promises that we can rely upon.\u00a0 <\/span>Prayer keeps our heart and mind in the presence of God.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
Our God is ever-present, all-knowing, and all-powerful. He can do more than we ask and much more than we can imagine. Cast your cares on Him.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
