The Christian life is a wonderful thing!

When practiced we find peace, our mind is renewed, we are consistently content and confident.
(I did not know this only 12 years ago...I would have said,
'Huh?....consistently happy, fulfilled 24/7?')
But, this is not realized without keeping the nose to the grind stone...focusing on what is true,
what Jesus tried to tell us to do!
And what did he tell us to do (along with Paul)?
Do not worry (do not....ever, not for a second)
Be not afraid (ever)
Cast your cares (always)
Ask (and you will receive, and your joy will be complete)...Jn 16
Give him your burdens (not some of them, all of them)
Be anxious for nothing (not anxious for a few things...nothing, ever.)

Early in my Christian life when all of these words, and many more, jumped out at me,
that day, that minute I began to practice them...
And, like a doggy tilting it's head, I saw how n-o-n-e of my Christian friends practiced
any of these.
They confided amazing confusions and troubles to me.

And that was when I said to myself, "Either I am going to practice what Jesus said...
or I am not."
Did the Holy Spirit fill me realization and conviction? I'll say.
Does this happen to everyone...nope...but I can at least try to encourage
my spiritual buddies to try all of the above instructions for a week...one week
see how the mind (thoughts, the devil, the lower ego self...) creeps in with worry...
doubt....anxiety ...("Oh no, I'm going to be late!"....''Oh no, where are my car keys?!!!").

In all the minutia of life the mind steers us to forget our faith in God...when we
have been told give our burdens away, cast (all and any) cares.

Try catching and banishing all words that take us away from the truth...that anything is
hard or not possible with God...nothing is really hard...it is a trick the devil uses from his
"toolbox of deceptions" to lure our hearts and minds away from trusting and relying on
our Father completely...as the birds of the field trust.

Jesus was such a good teacher...but it doesn't matter if the student doesn't follow
the instructions. Haha...pretty funny when you think about it, how simple it all is.
"Oh, you mean all my problems will go away when I just trust in God?"
Yup.
