I invite you to pause and take a few minutes to remember your blessings. Instead of thinking about your problems try focusing on God’s provision. Remember a specific time when He provided for you. Relive that experience, marveling anew at His generosity and faithfulness.
How do you feel now? Better, I’m sure. More relaxed and confident. Focusing on the goodness of God does that. It encourages our faith and makes us optimistic about the future. Now you are ready to surrender your present needs and concerns to Him.
“Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.”
— Philippians 4:6 (NIV)
Lord Jesus, Your past faithfulness gives us confidence to face the future. In Your holy name we pray. Amen.
