Another pick me up from Him

Ya'll just can't know how much I needed to hear this today.  God always knows.  I am so frustrated with the wedding plans and finances.   I am almost ready to just give up and call off the wedding.  I need to learn to have faith and believe that things will work out. I know that God is in control and He has a plan for me.  Most important I need to learn not to sweat the small stuff. I hope this helps someone else as much as it has helped me.  Be blessed.

SMALL STRAWS IN A SOFT WIND by Marsha Burns -- 7/12/11:

Agitation is a weapon formed against you to get you off track, but you can bind the power of that weapon and maintain your peace if you will take the time to do so. Actively resist the temptations that come to express anger or impatience, and they will pass quickly. However, if you act on the irritation that you feel, it will lead to unpleasant consequences. As you continue to maintain self-control you will gain spiritual freedom, says the Lord.

Matthew 16:19 "And I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.

    I needed this. I was stressing about some work related issues and not being happy at my current job so I'm going to trust in God to place a better situation in front of me and be patient while waiting :)

    This post speaks to me because goodness knows I allow things to agitate me these days easily.  I know that reacting always makes the issue bigger than it should be.  Thank you for the reminder to keep a calm demeanor.



    Love is the ultimate superpower.   
    It can make you weak and strong simultaneously.
