Read: Psalms 139:23
Happy Labor Day (if that’s even a real statement?)
Have you ever been excited to share some really good news with someone close to you? You are excited and you know they’ll be excited as well?
God, too, wants us to share our exciting news with Him. But He also wants us to tell Him when we are feeling anxious, afraid, discouraged, or sad. In Psalm 139:23 we find David sharing his anxious thoughts with God. When we name our fears, we remove the power they hold over us. The area of your life that you fear the most can reveal where you don’t fully trust God. We can overcome our fears today by committing them to God.
Peace is something that comes from God, not from the things of this world. Peace enables us to be a Peacemaker and bring peace to our neighborhood where those around us can be experiencing pain and worry.
We receive peace when we spend time in the presence of God. He will fill the dark places and remove our discouragement.
Questions:
(1) What is your first response when you feel anxious or afraid?
(2) What areas of your life are you most worried about that you need to give to God?
