"Our emotions are like smoke from a fire." St Augustine
Our peace and joy is wrapped up in our relationship with God, but it overflows into our relationships with others. If peace and joy is not overflowing, then something else will.
Our relationship with Christ is personal but it’s not private. You are individually saved and then united to a family of faith that centers around the gospel of Christ.
We all have our reasons for why we see some things the way we see them, but we can’t become unreasonable in our reasons to the point we become harsh with one another.
Just because you may face anxiety or depression it doesn’t mean you’re immature in the faith.
Yes you have a spiritual enemy but you also have a heavenly Father who loves you, a savior who defined your worth, and a Holy Spirit who’s power lives in you, and greater is he that is in you than he that is in the world.
The ONLY way we can keep any supernatural command from the word of God is by learning to lean on the indwelling Spirit's supernatural power.
If we try to give Him our burdens without giving Him ourselves then we have limited our opportunity for God's help.
Giving your burden to God is an act of faith. But giving yourself to God and letting Him use that burden to help you grow is taking an extra step of faith.
Prayer & supplication is expected of us not requested of us.
We approach God with reverent and humble submission then present our petitions with grateful reflection.
Christ is to be Lord of our mind in the same way that he is Lord of our actions.
Just like you can’t describe where your anxiety and worry always come from, God can give you a peace in the same way.
