Can you recall the one moment in your life when you felt
most proud of yourself?
Well, you can use your accomplishments to help yourself with
problems that you have now. When trying to work through a problem, remember
that you can accomplish anything that you really want to accomplish. Recall on
your proudest moment to get through your problem!
Sarah Young’s daily devotional book Jesus Calling gives words of wisdom. Here is what Nov. 30’s
devotion has to say:
“Problems are a part of life. They are inescapable: woven
into the very fabric of this fallen world. You tend to go into problem-solving
mode all too readily, acting as if you have the capacity to fix everything.
This is a habitual response, so automatic that it bypasses your conscious
thinking. Not only does this habit frustrate you, it also distances you from
Me.
Do not let fixing things be your top priority. You are ever
so limited in your capacity to correct all that is wrong in the world around
you. Don’t weight yourself down with responsibilities that are not your own.
Instead, make your relationship with Me your primary concern. Talk with Me
about whatever is on your mind, seeking My perspective on the situation. Rather
than trying to fix everything that comes to y our attention, ask Me to show you
what is truly important. Remember that you are en route to heaven, and let your
problems fade in the Light of eternity.
Psalm 32:8; Luke 10:41-42; Philippians 3:20-21”
While you are stressing and worrying over finals, tests,
papers, etc., focus on God. Ask Him to guide you through your hard times. This
way, you better your relationship with Him and you can release your worries
onto Him. He loves you, always!
