Jehovah Shalom

God is peace. So many of us are over consumed with worry all the time, but can worrying about a problem really solve anything? The answer is no! The only person who can truly bring peace to our lives is Jesus Christ. According to George Miller " the beginning of anxiety is the end of faith, and the beginning of true faith is the end of anxiety." This statement is so true. We should all fully but our faith and trust in God and when we worry we're not doing that, and that means that we doubt God can help us or solve our problems. Honestly God is bigger than anything we could ever face in this world and if you just trust in him he will help you and see you through. He will be your rock and foundation and provide for you. Worrying is as effective as "trying to solve a math problem by chewing bubble gum." it just doesn't work. Isaiah 9:6 states "... and he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace." Prince of Peace, which means God and only God can give you everlasting peace in your life. When you cast your burdens on him he can help you through and when you give him control you'll have peace of mind for sure. Worrying is something all people struggle with, me more than most, and it comes from things like deadlines, grades, finances, and anything else you can think of that causes you anxiety. Personally, in the last few weeks I have tried my hardest not to worry and to let God take control, and the times when I have fully let go, I found God. He was right there ready to take and tackle everything I couldn't do alone. God is so merciful and he knows how much you can and can't handle in your life and he'll never give you too much to take on. My challenge to you today is to stop holding on and fighting to solve all your problems on your own. Let go give them to God and see if you don't find peace! God Bless you. Isaiah 26:3 "You will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast, because he trust in you." :)
