At the minute I feel lost. I have had months of being more or less
content with life and having peace and joy in my heart. I enjoy my job - though it could be more challenging
for me, I have good friends and a good family.
I have a Christian Community around me. I have had joy.
However the past few days I feel
the joy has taken a side step and I feel lost.
My job is nearly at an end – am covering maternity leave – my finances
are not great and I have had a few health issues and my anxiety seems to be
taking over.
I know that there is no point in
worrying as that can make me worse and I should take all my concerns to God. I do
take my concerns to God, I ask him to deal with them as I cannot. However, I am also good at taking my worries
and concerns back the very next day.
It is hard to see a way forward
at the minute and I know the only thing to do is pray God will reveal his plans
to me one step at a time. All I have to
do is follow and trust in Him. God has
always provided jobs for me in the past when I needed them, he has never left
me stranded. But uncertainties still
cast a shadow over life.
I know I need to hold onto to the
truth and obey what is in God’s word. As
it says in Philippians 4 v 6 “Don’t worry about anything, instead pray about
everything. Tell God what you need and
thank him for all he has done”
That last bit is very very
important – we mustn't focus on what we do not have but be thankful for what we
do have. Focus on what we have got and not what we do not have. Focus on the
positives and not the negatives.
