Rest in God, He is in Control

Our anxiety is linked to our lack of trust,  which is linked our unwillingness to surrender it over to God in Prayer.  We keep trying to resolves things and to plan things on our own while God demands us to trust and rely on Him and to surrender our desires to him in prayerful petitions.  whether its work, relationship needs, emotional and spiritual, lack of forgiveness, or hate toward someone or something and so on. If it's causing fear and anxiety in your heart than its God's of telling you to surrender it all in prayer. verses:  Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. examples: (1) My search for a job.  my continues applying and worrying and trying to do it on my own. It was me trying to build a resume thinking that that is what will ultimately open the doors for me.  It was me trusting in my good judgement to make things happen.  (all good things come from God).  but when I prayed about my job first O felt the weight and pressure of trying to make it all happen by myself being lifted 

(2) My concern about the world and  the injustices and the abuse of power and the threat that that has to the future.  I see things that frustrates me and makes me feel helpless but that too is a lack of trust in God. I forget that God is the one running the show.  those people with their arrogance will all perish. They can't harm God's chosen.  They are all doing God's purpose.   So that makes me rejoice to know that may dad is in control.  No death catches God by surprise.  no decision is done without him approving it or allowing it.

We need to trust and rejoice in the crazy events of the days because it’s all a sign that God’s word is in fact true and that is coming. If God didn’t have control over the world than we would have reasons to worry about those in power.

God has worked to confort me. How fulish has I been in worrying about who is in powera and what they do. We are not called in the name of Christ to take sides on political matters, I think our word has to put all man under submition. There is no injustice greater against one person or another. Paul says that for we have all fallen short of the kindgom of God. It concerns me to see Christian hating others because they think one person is more injsut than others. My concern is that when we do that we reject our calling to love those who hates us. If creating the way thing are being happening is supposed to bring about peace, we have failed completly, and we shouldn’t allowed this to continue.

Where are getting our truth from?
