Partner in action,
I just spent a week in our psych unit at the local hospital for this 64 yr old problem in my life.
I have up most faith for everyone else but I packed down my own anxieties and depression and a self loathing.
It was the breaking point..... an old saying ( not bibical) God helps those who help themselves, is true. We must completely let him in to do HIS WORK in us for we are hampered by ourselves.
We will pray in conjunction and for ALL who suffer but live in captivity to this and are shamed at the fact.
Blessings.
I want to lengthen that saying . From GOD helps those who help themselves .
By asking a simple question . AND HOW do you suppose dear sister , that we help ourselves .
I bet you will agree with the answer .
BY SEEKING HE WHO IS OUR HELPER , BY SEEKING THE GLORIOUS LORD .
By submitting unto HIM . And by submission , well who we obey is who we have submitted ourselves unto .
Thus stay in prayer and be learning HIS biblical pattern well . Cry unto HE who is able to succor , give aid , HELP us .
FOR HE is our HELP , our STRENGTH , HE IS OUR Salvation . The KING of kings and the LORD of lords is HIS name .
And our hope is in HE alone . Its a nightmare to follow the flesh . YET when when we heed the SPIRIT
its peace . The carnal mind truly is enmity with GOD . And we must not heed that mind .
That mind produces a false hope , also fear and anxiety . IF you notice the carnal mind
has us living by emotions and looking to worldy solutions . What a stressful nightmare that is ,
YET when we heed that SPIRIT and simply remember what JESUS taught us , ITS PEACE that abounds my dear sister .
Cast ALL your cares upon HIM , set all those affections above on HIM . Trust HIM and WATCH that PEACE abound .
