This last week has been a struggle in every matter that I have come across. I don’t like doing the little things that need to get done. Whether it be making calls to set up doctor appointments, cancel my phone plan, or arrange events. I am a non-confrontational person and like when others take care of things for me, but I know that doing these things are important and a part of being an adult. It has definitely been a stretching experience for me to do these things. God has been showing up and giving me the courage to take on the responsibilities in my life.
I was nervous about reaching my financial goal in order to launch, but God told me not to worry and lay my fears and doubts at His feet. Everyday I woke up and prayed that God would take away my anxiety and not to stress because He’s got this under control. In my quiet time, one of the verses that was so confirming was…
Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
I know the more I press into the Lord and trust in His word the more I will grow in my walk. He has told me that this is where I need to be right now and not look to the future.
Matthew 6:25-27 “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life?”
I continue to learn that He cares deeply about me and has my best interest at heart. He wants me to look to Him in all matters and be dependent on Him.
Thank you all for aiding me in this journey that I am about to undertake, whether it be prayers or finances I know that God has placed you in my life for a reason. His plans are the best!!
