MY LIFE IS A COMPLETE MESS AT THE MOMENT!And that is quite OK because I know God’s Presence is with me every little step of the way to help me get matters sorted out. As I show up doing my best, I trust that He is behind the scenes helping me in the spiritual realm, tweaking situations on my behalf with His mighty favor and support (Wink! Wink!). He is pretty cool like that! As I look to Him on a moment-by-moment basis, I can tap into His wisdom, solutions, strategies, love, help, strength, tact, personality, clarity, and protection. “Be still and know that I am God,” is His constant reminder to me.I love this old post from my book, ‘Keep Calm, You’re Rolling With God:’‘GOD, YOU KNOW EVERY THOUGHT I THINK’That was me freaking out over God, as usual. I was having doubts about everything that was going on with me at the moment, a little bit worried and anxious about the future. Suddenly, a thought came out of nowhere, spooking me out even more: Maybe you’re too confident! I thought of how I’m always fussing my daughter, Julie, for being overconfident about her school work and refusing to study. Then 15 minutes later or so, I needed to use the restroom, but it was occupied, so I had to wait. I opened my meditation book, Jesus Calling, on my phone and unbelievably read: “You have every reason to be confident, because My Presence accompanies you all the days of your life—and onward into eternity.” Wow! God is so intimately involved in all our lives. I opened to the perfect sentence for me in that very moment. Here’s what else He had to say about all those worry and anxious thoughts: “Do not give into fear or worry, those robbers of abundant living. Trust Me enough to face problems as they come, rather than trying to anticipate them. Fix your eyes on Me, the Author and Perfector of your faith, and many difficulties on the road ahead will vanish before you reach them. Whenever you start to feel afraid, remember that I am holding you by your right hand. Nothing can separate you from my Presence! For I am the LORD, your God, who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear; I will help you.” And this message was confirmed in my other meditation book that I opened for a brief minute when I needed to grab something from my handbag: God: “I will go before you and level the mountains” (Isaiah 45:2). Our Father, thank You for Your intimate Presence in every aspect of our lives. May we always trust You and follow Your guidance. Amen.KEEP CALM—YOU’RE ROLLING WITH GOD
