Day 16: Anxious No More


Today I will be

ANXIOUS

about everything, in every circumstance.

I won't talk to GOD about what is bothering me.

I won't ask HIM to do anything about it.

I will continue to complain.

I will focus on whatever is false, unwholesome, wrong, impure, ugly, and unworthy,

And then I will be

ANXIOUS

about everything, in every circumstance.

Therefore, I won't talk to GOD about what is bothering me.

I won't ask HIM to do anything about it.

I will continue to complain.

I will focus on whatever is false, unwholesome, wrong, impure, ugly, unworthy.

Hmm...

I guess I will always be

ANXIOUS.

My choice.

What are you anxious about?

How do you "try" to get rid of your worry and your anxiety?

What if I told you~

"DO NOT BE" anxious?

Do those three words carry the power to take away your anxiety?

Actually they bring more anxiety to me,

because it is so hard "not to be" in the midst of being

ANXIOUS.

But GOD

just doesn't tell us to

"DO NOT BE"

as HE desires to be part of the process.

What happens when you do it

HIS WAY?

Try it NOW!

Today

I WILL NOT BE ANXIOUS

about anything,

no matter the circumstance.

Because

I WILL TALK TO GOD

about what is bothering me.

I WILL ASK HIM

to do something about it.

I WILL THANK HIM

for all HE has done and for all who HE is.

I WILL FOCUS

on whatever is true, noble, right, pure, lovely, and admirable

Then

THE PEACE OF GOD

that transcends all understanding

WILL

guard my heart & mind

IN CHRIST JESUS.

Because

THE PEACE OF JESUS

overrides ANXIETY.

PEACE

is THE GIFT from GOD.

that is

PEACE with GOD,

because of JESUS CHRIST

who is beyond anything that you could ever imagine,

when HE covers your ANXIOUS heart.

HIS PEACE in the midst of a storm.

HIS PEACE in the midst of pain.

HIS PEACE in the midst of the unknown.

HIS PEACE

that moves you beyond

ANXIETY

when you choose to

take your eyes off of your

ANXIOUS SELF

&

instead fix them on the

ONE

who tells you to

DO NOT BE

so that

HE CAN BE

what you can't be.

Let's

do it

GOD'S WAY

and

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.

Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—

if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things."

(Philippians 4:6-8.)

What do you have to be anxious about NOW?

Therefore,

"PEACE BE STILL"

(listen to the song below)
