The weekend flew by, didn’t it?
You barely had time to catch your breath, and now—just like that—it’s Monday again. But did you even feel rested? 🥲
Once again, you’re back in the whirlwind of work deadlines, unfinished chores at home, and a mind that refuses to slow down. The to-do list never seems to end.
𝗔𝗻𝗱 𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗴𝗮𝗶𝗻… 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗿𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴. 🥴
But wait. Let’s pause for a moment.
Jesus once asked a simple yet profound question:
“𝐂𝐚𝐧 𝐚𝐧𝐲 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐛𝐲 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐫𝐲𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐝𝐝 𝐚 𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐥𝐞 𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐭𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐞?” – 𝐌𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐰 𝟔:𝟐𝟕 (𝐍𝐈𝐕)
Think about it. When we operate from a place of anxiety, we act as if we’re in control of everything. But in reality, we aren’t. And eventually, life has a way of reminding us of that.
𝗕𝘂𝘁 𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲’𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗴𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗻𝗲𝘄𝘀:
“𝐃𝐨 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐛𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐱𝐢𝐨𝐮𝐬 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐚𝐧𝐲𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠, 𝐛𝐮𝐭 𝐢𝐧 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲 𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧, 𝐛𝐲 𝐩𝐫𝐚𝐲𝐞𝐫 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐩𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧, 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐤𝐬𝐠𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐠, 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐫𝐞𝐪𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐆𝐨𝐝. 𝐀𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐆𝐨𝐝, 𝐰𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐡 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐬 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠, 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐠𝐮𝐚𝐫𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐂𝐡𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐭 𝐉𝐞𝐬𝐮𝐬.” – 𝐏𝐡𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐩𝐩𝐢𝐚𝐧𝐬 𝟒:𝟔-𝟕 (𝐍𝐈𝐕)
That’s a promise. The peace of God isn’t dependent on your circumstances—it surpasses them.
Even Jesus Himself acknowledged that life wouldn’t be easy:
“In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” – John 16:33 (NIV)
So, dear friend, take heart. Step into this new week with a renewed sense of hope, trusting in God’s peace no matter what comes your way.
May you find rest in His promises and enjoy every moment—because He’s got you covered.
