Do not be afraid of sudden terror, nor of trouble from the wicked when it comes; for the LORD will be your confidence, and will keep your foot from being caught. —PROVERBS 3:25—26 NKJV

No matter what you are going through or what storms you are facing in life, take your position. Don't give up. Stand still. Enter God's rest. See the salvation of the Lord. Quit worrying and trying to figure out everything that is happening around you. And above all, worship God. Remember, no matter what your battle is, it is not yours; the battle belongs to the Lord, and He has a plan to bring you victory.

27 The point is quickly made that worry is useless. It does not accomplish any good thing. If that is so, then

Jesus did not worry, and we do not have to worry either!

Too often we get caught up in our own words concerning prayer. Sometimes we try to pray so long, loud, and fancy that we lose sight of the fact that prayer is our conversation with God. The length or loudness or eloquence of our prayer is not the issue; it is the sincerity of our heart and the confidence we have that God hears and will answer us that is important.

Prayer mixed with worry and a negative conversation doesn't bring an answer.

Oil of anise, basil, bay, chamomile, eucalyptus, lavender, peppermint, rose, and thyme are all soothing scents that can help decrease stress levels.1

When you're under pressure, it's always best to pray about it instead of fret about it or talk about it.

For this reason I am telling you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe (trust and be confident) that it is granted to you, and you will [get it]. Mark 11:23,24 Faced with one thing or another, I frequently began to hear myself say, "I wonder.

When we make good decisions, it gives us the joy of partnering with God in having the best life we possibly can have.

The mind should not be filled with reasoning, worry, anxiety, fear, and the like. It should be calm, quiet, and serene.

We can complain and remain, or praise and be raised.
