Turn Everything Over To God

       "The Lord is far from the wicked but he hears the prayer of the righteous."

        Proverbs 15:29

              As you know, nobody can think clearly or make wise decisions when they are weary. Many times, we compound the problems in our life by making hasty, non-prayerful decisions in the heat of the moment without thinking. Today I encourage you to go to God, ask Him to comfort you, give you His peace, and His rest. Jesus said, "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest." I sense today that many of you simply need to go to the Lord today and find that rest He has promised to you. Listen my friend, the problems you have didn't happen overnight, and unless God decides to work a miracle, they won't go away overnight. But know that God will help you to get victory over your problems in His perfect timing. I know that many of you today are burdened by the cares of this world. You have mountains in your life that are so large, you know it is only a matter of time before they crush you. You woke up this morning with a glimmer of hope, clinging to that last ounce of faith that today, maybe today, you might get that breakthrough you are looking for. You are tired, weary, and without enough energy to go on much longer.   My friend, put your burdens down, quit thinking about the circumstances you are facing for a few minutes and let God, the One who loves you, give you His peace and comfort today!  Never lose sight that no matter what, God is still on the throne and still in control. My prayer for you today is to take time to find God's peace and comfort despite the problems you are facing. Let Him comfort you in the midst of your trials. Let Him simply love you today.
