Psalm 119:146 As pressure and stress bear down on me, I find joy in your commands. (NLT)
I came across this verse this morning in my bible study time. As the day unfolds, and life comes full force at you - when you begin to feel overwhelmed, stressed or under pressure (for mom's the last two are especially true when your fighting to get home school done when all they want is to play...or when you've broken up the 100th fight in 30 minutes.) remember God's word, recall it and speak it. For there is joy and peace in the promises that our Father has given us. In His word we find abundant life and endless joy even in the midst of trials and stress.
Thank you Father for your word that causes me to focus on you
that brings to remembrance your goodness and mercy, that causes
me to see the blessings you have given me. Thank you for your
Word that causes me to look to you instead of focusing on the
circumstances that surround me - For true joy is ONLY found in you!
AMEN
