1 Peter 5:7 Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you.
Do you ever get so fixated on a problem that you can't seem to think about anything else? You've prayed and asked the Lord for the solution but the more you try to decide what to do the more you go round in circles! I've come to the conclusion the best thing to do is just leave it all alone for a while, cast the care of it once more onto the Lord and go and do something else! Go and make pancakes!
The more we fret about something the worse it becomes, the bigger it gets, but the more we trust the Lord the more it releases faith for the solution to manifest. At the end of the day God knows all about it and He already has the answer but when we worry away at it, like a dog with a bone, the less likely we are to receive the answer because we're not in faith about it. God tells us not to worry for a reason, it's because worry and fear clog up the pipes of God's supply!
So next time you feel like worrying yourself silly about something, imagine putting that worry or fear in a parcel, addressing it to God our Father, put a stamp of faith in the corner and imagine you're putting it in the heavenly post box for God to deal with it. Believe God will reply and thank Him for giving you the solution when He knows you need it, and that He's dealing with it. Until then, let it go!
If the enemy comes and whispers in your ear "What are you going to do?" Just say you've already done it, posted it and given it to God and until He shows you what to do you're just not worrying about it!
Now and then do a little faith check. Am I clogging up the pipes? Am I worrying about something, because if I am I'm not in faith about it and repent and ask the Lord to take over once again because we know He cares about us. I'm just off to do that now as I have some parcels I need to put in the heavenly post box!😊
