Transition isn't Easy

Jeremiah 1:5-8 (MSG) “Before I shaped you in the womb, I knew all about you.Before you saw the light of day, I had holy plans for you:A prophet to the nations—that’s what I had in mind for you.”But I said, “Hold it, Master God! Look at me. I don’t know anything. I’m only a boy!”7-8 God told me, “Don’t say, ‘I’m only a boy.’  I’ll tell you where to go and you’ll go there.I’ll tell you what to say and you’ll say it. Don’t be afraid of a soul. I’ll be right there, looking after you.” God’s Decree.

I realize that  I am in   a season of  transition  I don't know  what my next steps are, I don't  know what  the outcome  of the sharing my heart through  this blog are .  To be  honest  for me  this is hard for me  to handle .   I know that this is  what I am  supposed to be doing but I want to know that things will work out  and how they will work out. With  all of these question marks  floating around in my  mind  I  find myself  over-thinking everything and becoming  overwhelmed

But in those  moments of  self doubt and feeling inadequate   God will  remind me that He has me  in the palm of His hand.


" Relax  long enough to know that  I am  steering your life in the direction that I've mapped out; Where you are  is where you need to be  in order   to  flourish and grow.  I will  put you in the path  of those who are  equipped to help you  but you must be open enough to receive help."


So  I must  check my  pride at the door, trust  God  and the confirmation that He is  present, He cares and He is in control even as I  feeling  a bit  out of control.   I don't need  know  all the  details, what I need to do is  trust God  fully  and  move  forward at His leading and not  out of  panic.  If you are  going through something  similar take this as your confirmation, breath and  know  that  God has   everything under  control. 

Love,

Prayer Series pt.1 Pray More. Worry less.

Psalm 61:2(CEB)When my heart is weak,  I cry out to you from the very ends of the earth. Lead me to the rock that is higher than I am


Dear  God

I come to you with my  troubled heart and  overwhelming thoughts.  I've tried to handle things on my own, in my  way and I've come up short and more stressed.  So  Father I give  all that is causing me anxiety,  all that  is  causing sleepless nights and all the things that  cause me to doubt your  grace and lay  it at your  feet. 

Please renew my heart  and  pour  peace into my  situation, help me to  keep my eyes focused on you and  not my circumstances. When I am overwhelmed remind me that I can trust that your love and  presence has never left me and  that you are  actively  working things out on my behalf. 

In these moments of  weakness Lord I pray your strength  fills me; Breath new life into me dear God and remove anything that  causes me to stumble and revert back to fear. My desire is to trust you fully , with all of me not  just a  portion of my life so when I try to handle things on my own and way I'll quickly remember  that my life is taken care of  and handled better when I put things in your hands.  These things I pray in Jesus' name . Amen

If you're wrestling with fear and anxiety  I want to encourage you  to place it at the feet of God.  Know that nothing takes God by surprise  and He is  present in your situation. You do not have to carry the weight of the world on your shoulders; Give  all that  is weighing you  down  to God and he will give you rest!  You will get through this,  God is with you  and He will never leave you. 

Love,
