Obedience
Life can be trying at times, but life isn't stressful, it is joyful! Toils of everyday life and responsibility can weigh a girl down, but I find that I do things (at a minimum to try and do things) ---ALL things--- with a glad heart, stress seems to dissipate and there can be joy in every little thing.
Even though there has been loss in the lives of friends lately, I try and concentrate on fact that God loves us and doesn't forsake us. He has a plan greater than I can fathom, and I find that to be a great comfort. Especially when things happen in life and we are left questioning "WHY???," great things can manifest themselves.
God has a great plan afoot in the Heavenlies...we don't know why, and it's not our place to know why. HE will reveal that to us when the time is right. Having faith in that, resting in His love and knowing I don't have to take care of everything is a relief. It's not my job to take care of everything, that is His job. The best I can do is to listen what He tells me, and to do my very best to be obedient and serve with a glad heart... God will take care of all the other things.
I rambled on to make this point....Worry, stress, fear, anxiety, and doubt are not of God. Don't let these things control your actions, attitudes and state of mind. Most especially, don't allow those things to distract you from being obedient and serving others.
