If you celebrate the good things in life, you will find that everyday will be a party. Today let us celebrate Friday, and thank the Lord for his continued grace and mercy!
You are God’s masterpiece which makes you priceless, never let anyone make you think that you are less than God’s best.
“Gimme a Break I sure deserve it; it’s time I made it to the top”-Gimme a Break Theme Song
It is Friday and I think that it is fair to say that we all deserve a break. It seems like everyday we have so many things that deserve our attention. Gas prices, bills, work schedule, kids and family can all seem overwhelming at times. I want to encourage you on this Friday not to worry because relief is just a prayer away. God is waiting on us to call on Him for relief. Yes we still have to pay the bills, and handle our work and kids, but the Bible tells us that if we put our trust in God that we don’t have anything to worry about.
Philippians 4:6-7 says: Do not be anxious about anything but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus
Dear Reader God can relieve all of the stress that we have built up in us, if we go to Him in prayer. He is the same God that parted the Red Sea. He is the same God that gave strength to a senior citizen named Noah to build a boat. The same God that delivered the children of Israel into the promised land, is watching over you and He will deliver you to greatness.
There was a study that showed that people who pray on a regular basis have lower stress levels and maintain a more consistent heart rate than those that don’t. So I guess it’s safe to say that prayer is good for your health.
Don’t let the troubles of the world get you down. Keep in mind that you have a an advocate in your corner that always has your best interest in mind. Don’t tell God how big your problems are, tell your problems how big your God is.
I wish you all peace
John Reed
