PRAYER 🧡

🙏 Father God, You know my thoughts from afar. You know how I tend to play out different situations in my mind till they grip my heart with fear.

+Father, today I recognize that those patterns of negative, untrue thinking are often a ploy of the enemy to distract me and steal my peace.

+Today I chose to reject those thoughts and replace them with the truth from Your Word. In Jesus’ name, Amen. 🙌☝️🪄🌻💜

Don’t Forget Thanksgiving

+In turning our eyes to Jesus on Thanksgiving, we are able to take our white-knuckle grip off our problems.

+This is not about faking it, but acknowledging and remembering God in the midst of the hard.

+Thanksgiving turns our eyes from our situation to our Saviour, from our overwhelming problems to His overwhelming love.

+We don’t give thanks because the situation merits it. We give thanks because of Who He is in the midst of our situation.

+We give thanks for what He may be doing in and through us when those unbearable trials descend on us.

+We can hold both our anxiousness and thanksgiving together. His Word tells us to do just that. 😊

🙏 Father God, I acknowledge today that I often tell myself a solely negative story, and I forget Your hand of blessing in my life.

+I tend to focus so exclusively on my problems that I overlook how You led me through storms in the past.

+Lord, help today as I speak to You about my trials to also spend time on thanksgiving.

+Because even in the wilderness and the weariness, You are with me and Your grace is sufficient.

+I thank You today because You promise to work all things out for my good and Your glory. In Jesus’ name. Amen. 🙌☝️🪄🌻❣️

GOD KNOWS EXACTLY WHAT YOU NEED ♥️

+God knows every detail and nuance of our situation, and yet He urges us to come to Him because in communion with Him, He has the opportunity to flood our anxious hearts with His incomparable, incomprehensible peace.

🙏 Heavenly Father, What a privilege it is to carry everything to You in prayer. As the old hymn goes, we often forfeit peace because we don’t carry everything to You in prayer.

+Father, help me to let go of my need to control situations and outcomes. Father, forgive me for acting like prayer is a last resort to which I must resign.

+Help me to see it as a beautiful opportunity to let go and experience the peace that You give me. In Jesus’ name. Amen. 🙌☝️🪄🌻❣️
