We are most free when we are totally dependent on him

When we admit our true condition- that our self will is insufficient and that we need the Lord more than anything else; then we are positioned for him to enter our lives in amazing ways and do what only he can do.

Don't fret under your load but wait on the Lord. Fear is a toxic spring from where anxiety, restlessness, and impatience flow. But from a heart that trusts the Lord are endless streams of joy, peace, and happiness. Restlessness, worry, and impatience solve nothing except take away our joy, peace, and happiness. When you come to wits end, be still and wait trustfully and patiently on him who holds everything together.

Many go through life either worrying about the future or haunted by the past. Don't worry about the future; about things that may never happen. Don't rehearse or playback the hurts and the pain of yesterday. Don't anticipate trouble, pain or loss. Matthew 6:34 says "therefore do not worry..." Live in the moment, one day at a time. Your life is in the hands of an able God.

Life is so much more than what your eyes are seeing. You will find your way if you keep believing.

Sin depresses the heart, it diseases the body. The joy of the Lord is your strength.
When a man has covered sin, he becomes very critical.

If you have no intentions in building someone up, don't tear them down.
