Sometimes I need reminding

So I haven't felt much anxiety about this trip at all until now... Until the past two days. And when I feel anxious... I feel real anxious. But tonight or I guess its morning now I was just trying to ease some nerves and dive into the word and I found a piece on the verse Romans 12:s....

"Return Unto Me

Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God. Romans 12:2

Return to Me; for I have sought after you, but you have continued on in pursuit of your own ways. I have called to you, but you have disregarded Me. I have placed obstacles in your path, hoping that you would stop and consider and ask of Me, but you have obstinately and determinedly forged on ahead.

Have you learned no wisdom? Have past lessons fled your mind? Are My dealings with you forgotten?

O stubborn and rebellious child, has My love no longer the power to melt your heart? Have my words that you once so treasured become of no value to you?

Put down your anxieties, and trust Me for everything. You need nothing but what I am fully able to supply; with no effort on your part. I do not ask all My children to live in so complete a degree of trust, but I require it of you, because you cannot please Me with anything less.

You are weary; and you should be strong. You are encumbered, and I would have you free. You are hindered by undue concerns, when you should be abounding in joy.

Come back into My perfect will, and finish the task I have assigned you. Anything else is sin. What may be legitimate for another is not so for you.

Come close to Me, and I will minister to you and revive your spirit. So shall you go on, even though the climb is steeper than ever before."




God, I trust you. Remind me daily that I trust you. I need nothing more than you. Help me lean on and depend on you this month. allow me to put down my anxieties Lord, lift them from me. Remind me that its not of my own effort that I accomplish anything in this time. Lord it is you working in me that allows me to accomplish anything. Give me strength, set me free, fill my heart with abounding joy. Show me your will and draw me close to you, make my task clear and guide me in my pursuit of it. Minister to me and revive my spirit so that I may be more effective in serving you.

Lord, I have faith... let's move mountains
