Untangled

On my own:

I am insecure.

I am awkward.

I am broken.

On my own I am a jumbled mess of feelings, most of which are built on lies meant to keep me from living the abundant life God has for me.

With Jesus:

I am secure.

I am confident.

I am mended.

I am whole.

With Jesus, I am untangled and set free. With Jesus I learn the Truth of who I am.

With Jesus I find abundance:

I find love.

I find joy.

I find acceptance.

I find peace.

I find security.
With Jesus I am untangled.

In Control

Dear Heavenly Father,

I am so grateful for Your loving care. You alone are sovereign over all. Everything that goes on in this world is under Your authority. No matter how far this world seems to spin out of control, You remain in complete control. Help me to place and keep my hope, peace, confidence, and joy in You. You are good, merciful, powerful, righteous, and just. Your ways prevail. Help me to keep focused on who You are.

Amen.

1 Chronicles 29:11-12, “Yours, Lord, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the majesty and the splendor, for everything in heaven and earth is yours. Yours, LORD is the kingdom: you are exalted as head over all.  Wealth and honor come from you; you are the ruler of all things.In your hands are strength and power to exalt and give strength to all."
