Yesterday, I felt nervous and worried. Feelings are so not-helpful sometimes! But when I would go back and read God’s Word, it brought a peace to my heart. 

So many wonderful scriptures, words of encouragement and prayers on our behalf over the last few days. Thank you!!

From Mindy Boyd Baier: 
“I sought the Lord, and He answered me and delivered me from all my fears.” Psalms‬ ‭34:4‬ ‭HCSB‬‬

From Gladys Kiruga:
“Good people suffer many troubles, but the LORD saves them from them all;”. Psalms‬ ‭34:19‬ ‭GNB‬‬

From Alisha Williams:
“Always be joyful. Never stop praying. Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus.” 1Thessalonians‬ ‭5:16-18‬ ‭NLT‬

From Chasidy Crum’s devo - I love this perspective on facts and problems!! 
“Have you discovered the difference between problems and facts? Problems are things we can do something about; we can solve problems. Facts are things we can do nothing about; therefore we do well not to worry about them. We apply energy only to those things we can change. We can feel peace and act with poise, because we no longer beat our heads against an unbreakable wall.”

And this scripture from Jackie Walton Bennett:

Let all that I am wait quietly before God, for my hope is in Him.  He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress where I will not be shaken.  Psalms 62:5-6 NLT
