I haven’t slept well the past few nights so tonight I really need to get a good nights rest. I’ve had so much to think about and waiting for a call from the doctor’s office that it is interfering with my sleep. It looks like tomorrow is going to be an important day and I want to be well rested.So immediately a scripture we all know and love comes to mind:
“Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.”
It doesn’t say get on FB and b**** and moan about your problems. It doesn’t say continue to complain as you have everyday. NO it says TELL GOD WHAT YOU NEED!!! Once you do that His peace will guard your heart and mind. The amplified says “that [c]tranquil state of a soul assured of its salvation through Christ, and so fearing nothing from God”
It doesn’t say “poof” your problem will be gone but it does say we will have peace about the situation.
So, Father I have been filled with some anxiousness, some worry and wonder. I get frustrating while I am waiting and it has effected my sleep. Father I ask for your help tonight as I lay my head on the pillow that I will fall asleep quickly and wake up (no earlier than 7am) feeling rested and refreshed! Thank you in advance and for always being right there when these moments of being overwhelmed come over me. I pray for others on FB that are struggling with the same thing. Tonight Father show them that you hear their cries! In Jesus name, Amen. ‪
