Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time He may exalt you, casting all your anxieties on Him, because He cares for you. 1 Peter 5:6 ESVLaying in bed and unable to sleep, another night passed by. So concerned about the next day, that I could not seem to end the current one. Yet when the following day arrived, everything took care of itself. Day after day, year after year, decade after decade, the pattern continues. Worry is for nothing, anxiety accomplishes nothing, and when the problem arrives, so does God's provision.
Stop striving to make something happen too soon, or in your own strength. When the time comes, it will be unstoppable and so easy that you will say, 'How can it be?'. I have worked at things so hard in my life that I became frustrated and gave up, then watched it come to pass without having to lifting a finger to help. Even my 'giving up' did not stop God's promises from coming to pass in my life. It is He who is faithful, not me.
Relax, stop striving, stop worrying and being so anxious about the future. Submit yourself to God, put Him first, delight in the Lord and all of these things will take care of themselves in the proper time. He cares for you and He gave you the dream that you carry inside. Relax, take it one step at a time. Love Him and let Him bring it to pass.

I asked God to just give me a sign that he is there with me even when I don't know the right steps to follow. I just want to take things in life one day at a time and I ended up seeing this devotional and it was exactly what I needed to hear. Especially at this point my life to just help me put one foot in front of the other and to not give up even when circumstances in life try to throw me off the right path. Just knowing God is listening brings me peace and makes me smile. He always answers my prayers through others. Thanks so much for posting this devotional. Sometimes it's literally the only thing that gives me hope for the day. :)
Thank you for this devotion today! God has done so much for me, sending people to me to tell me about jobs, houses etc and gone before me and set up stuff to flow in my life. This is so incredible to me and yet I still get anxious and fearful when something happens. I do trust God but I guess I need to learn to trust him completely and know that He will always take care of my problems as long as I stay in prayer and in his word and remain faithful to him.
