We all experience challenges, difficulties, times of overwhelming stress, anxiety, pain or sickness. At times the heaviness of it all may feel too intense to handle. It’s during these times that I want to remind you that when you feel like you’re alone, that no one understands or that no one is there to hear you…God does hear you! He loves you and is the one who is always ready and willing listen to you when you need it most.
Even though our pains or suffering may not be immediately removed from us, we can still find God’s comfort today. He invites us to come to Him with our whole heart and share with Him all that we’re feeling. He wants us to release the pain and suffering and leave it all in His hands. He will take care of us, He will carry us from moment to moment, He will do that for each one of us who seek Him with a sincere heart. He will lighten our loads even if it’s just by providing divine PEACE for our souls today.
We just have to be truly willing to have eyes to see and a heart to feel the love and peace that God can provide for us immediately. We have a choice when we’re feeling overwhelmed, stressed, anxious or discouraged. We can either choose to allow more negativity, overwhelm and stress to enter our minds and hearts. We can continue trying to look for peace in the world around us. Or instead, we can choose to have a moment to take some deep breaths, be more present, slow down a little, focus on what we can control TODAY and most importantly, trust in God more than men or what we can do for ourselves.
God has given us promises and tools to bring us inner peace and to truly bring rest to our souls. A few of the questions that we can ask ourselves are; “How do I genuinely show God that I truly believe in Him & His timing for all things?”, “Am I willing and open to feeling the comfort and peace that GOD CAN PROVIDE for me IMMEDIATELY after I ask?” & finally, “How willing am I to look within myself and to reach out to God for inner peace and rest from the burdens that I may be carrying today?”
Mathew 11:28-30 Says
“Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest into your souls.
For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
He invites us to COME TO HIM. We get to choose for this ourselves (that’s how loving He is that He allows each one of us to choose!) He invites us to learn of Him, to come to know Him better. By doing so, we will learn that He is a GOOD GOD. A God who is never blind to our tears, who knows our pain and all of the difficulties we each have to expedience. He is never deaf to our prayers, and is always ready to comfort us in the way that we each personally need it. So, remember to say to yourself. “He HEARS ME, HE SEES ME, HE LOVES ME. I trust in His divine plan for my life. I do the best that I can today with the strength of knowing that I can do all things through Christ who strengthens ME.”
We all know that life is short and temporary. Each day really is a gift and a new opportunity that God gives us to do better. Do we want live our days in sadness and despair feeling stressed and overwhelmed? Do we want to be constantly triggered by all that is going on in the world around us? Or do we want to gain more inner stability, peace and strength in God? He is ready to provide it to any who truly SEEK HIM. The more that we’re able to align ourselves to Him, the less fears we will have in the world and the better we will be able to make choices and handle the difficult situations that may come into our lives.
With God we can do all things. With Him we are WAY STRONGER, PEACEFUL AND STABLE than we can be on our own. We all know that our world needs a little more of that. So, we can start by processing our own emotions and leaving them at the altar and in the Hands of God. We can choose to focus on the strength that God can provide and not have our minds focused on the negative or terrible things that have happened. We can instead focus on turning to find His light for our lives TODAY! & we can remind ourselves to take it one day at day at a time, one moment at a time.
Take this moment for example, to feel your breath, where you’re sitting, what you can smell, what you can feel with your hands. What you can hear. This is the moment you’re in right now. Nothing else is as important as this moment to regain your energy and strength through God. Close your eyes and take a moment to just feel Him! Feel His amazing love for you. Feel gratitude for your beating heart, your loving irking body, feel the sun, the energy of all the plants and animals, the life that He gives to all living things including YOUR OWN LIFE TODAY!
That’s one of the ways in which we can experience God today. Realizing that even our very breath is a gift. Notice that we do have beauty and goodness to focus on around us. It all depends on where we focus our energy. We don’t have to be triggered by negativity or difficulties. WHAT MATTERS IS HOW WE CHOOSE TO REACT TO THE CIRCUMSTANCES THAT WE FACE. We can be more purposeful in our day. More willing to flow in the light of God and willing to see the gifts that we have today. We can experience His sunlight for our lives and the blessings that we have today. He will help us to feel that peace. Can you feel it right now as you focus on it? We can be carried in His arms moment by moment feeling the peace, health and love that He can provide. We just have to be willing to see God in our lives and His fingerprints that are all around us.
When you begin to feel your connection to Him becoming stronger you’re able to recognize clearly that you too are a child of God. The child of a Father in Heaven who is filled with wisdom, light and knowledge of all things. You realize that YOU are actually made made of that same divine light. You begin to recognize your strength, you ability to bring more light into your life and your power within yourself will begin to grow and develop as you choose to focus on the light.
The more we practice this from moment to moment the faster our brain will re-wire the ability to focus on the good and on the light within us and all around us. We will also be able to recognize darkness, and we will begin to learn to release that negativity more often even until it no longer has any power over us. We are divine beings made of light. Our minds and hearts are more peaceful and stable as we remember where we come from. Who we are and realize that God is with us to help us re-frame the way we’re viewing our life. We can have a joyful and peaceful life as we choose to focus on the light of our lives. The more we do this the easier it will become to be a light in the lives of our families, loved ones and the world around us.
So, remember God is with you! & HE ALWAYS WILL BE. You’ve got this! Come unto to Him & you will receive peace and rest. Focus on the light, love, peace and all the good that you find in TODAY. You’ll feel the difference of what you UNITED with God can do for your life. 💪🏼🥰
