It is strange the things that we subject ourselves to. We go about our days/lives unhappy, stressed, filled with anxiety, and overwhelmed with worry. We obsess over the many things that we cannot control, but the very things that we can control…we let sit.
As you all know I am on a journey to inner peace and happiness. Some days I am good and others I find myself loss. It wasn’t till I was sitting in church this Sunday that I realized why I find myself so lost sometimes. I do not focus on my faith and the power that comes with it. God promises that if I wait on him and move in his will that all things shall be “handled” (in my Olivia Pope voice). I fear circumstances and situations that do not have any power over me. Actually, it is the exact opposite I have control over it (“it “being the situation).
In the last 3 months my husband and I have found ourselves and our family in some trying and frustrating situations, but…..in all things I can still see God’s presence. He continually showed up and knocked one thing down after another. However, it took me a second to clue in! As I sit and worry he was taking care of it and saying, “See I am right here” but did I hear him? Nope. Too busy listening to my own thoughts and fears.
So all this is to say…WALK OUT OF THE CAGE! The door is open. You do not have to live in fear, worry, or frustration. As cliché as it may seem hard work does pay off, karma will always come back around, and God will never leave you or forsake you.
You are a prisoner to nothing and no one…walk in your freedom.
