When you're full of yourself, God can't fill you. But when you empty yourself, God has a useful vessel.
Here's what you need to keep in mind. You no longer have yesterday. You do not yet have tomorrow. You have only today. This is the day the Lord has made. Live in it.

Rather than seeking total control, relinquish it. You can't run the world, but you can entrust it to God. This is the message behind Paul's admonition to "rejoice in the Lord." Peace is within reach, not for lack of problems, but because of the presence of a sovereign Lord. Rather than rehearse the chaos of the world, rejoice in the Lord's sovereignty, as Paul did. Sovereignty gives the saint the inside track to peace. Others see the problems of the world and wring their hands. We see the problems of the world and bend our knees.
God never said that the journey would be easy, but He did say that the arrival would be worthwhile.
If your God is mighty enough to ignite the sun, could it be that He is mighty enough to light your path?
Faith is the conviction that God knows more than we do about this life and He will get us through it.
