Dear Grace and Truth Family,
The Holy Ghost brought this to my attention several times during the course of this week: I am anxious for “several things.” There are certain situations and people that push my “anxiety button”, and it remains in the “on” position operating with full power for hours and even days at a time. My thoughts are crowded out by this “thing” and/or “person”, and I respond with the intent of making things happen or not happen. I am totally blinded to my fixation and thoughts which have exalted themselves in my mind above the knowledge of the Lord Jesus. Surely you know where I am, my brothers and sisters.
Yet we can still rejoice because our GOD visits us, and the Holy Ghost reveals to us what HE has been inspecting. …And HE will wash and cleanse us as well as teach and establish us by HIS WORD. …And it shall come to past that we who belong to HIM, being transformed into the image of our LORD, might testify to HIS work in us—being anxious for nothing but by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, we let our request be made known to HIM…and the peace of God shall rule our hearts. Our LORD says HE knows how to work all things together for good…
We can expect to hear then from our LORD concerning this matter of anxiety. HE knows just what we need and when we need it. All praise belongs to HIM!
Hallelujah!
