These things dominate the thoughts of unbelievers, but your Heavenly Father already knows all your needs.

We all have plenty of reasons to live worried and stressed, trying to fix everything in our own strength. That’s overwhelming. Come back to a place of peace. Your Heavenly Father knows all your needs. He knows what you’re facing. He knows the dreams He’s placed in your heart. He sees the struggles, the unfair situations, the times you were put at a disadvantage. You don’t have to do life on your own, trying to make up for it, trying to accomplish the dream. Jesus says, “Come to Me, and I will give you rest.” Stop depending on your own efforts, your own ability. That striving is draining. If you start depending on Him, you’ll feel that load lift off you. God has you in the palms of His hands. He hasn’t let go of you. If you’re going to feel His strength and see His favor, you have to put Him first place and abide in Him. You can only do so much in your own efforts. Do what you can, and then leave it up to God.

Father, thank You that I do not have to keep being trapped in worry about things over which I have no control. Thank You that You will provide me with exactly what I need when I need it. I choose to rest and be at peace, knowing that You will work it for my good. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
