Whatever chaos you’re facing today or this week, I encourage you to take a moment to breathe. Sometimes our lives seem as fragile as a house of cards and it’s all going to fall apart if the breeze picks up. However, sometimes Jesus needs us to feel that way in order to work on our lives and shape them the way He wants them to be. 

It feels like we’re out of control sometimes. Or that we don’t have what we need to get things done. Whatever the case is in your life, I challenge you to trust God. In the moment we feel scared or doubtful or reluctant because we want to show God and others what we can do. But it’s in that same moment that God could give you peace in your situation. 

Whatever it is in your life, the illness, the worry, the fear of rejection, the pain of memories, the daunting future, trust God to give you a peace only He can provide. 

“I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” -John 16:33
