Today's news is full of reasons to be anxious and fearful. There is the COVID variant that is running rampant through many areas of the country. There is the Soviet Union's threat over the Ukraine creating unrest among all the countries that care. Then there is the volatile stock market that has investors troubled. And the groundhog saw his shadow so there will be six more weeks of winter.
That is enough to cause anyone to be fearful. But remember Who is in charge. God. We can depend on Him through everything we face in this life. He is there for us. Scripture tells us that all we need to do is listen to Him.
"But whoever listens to me will live in safety and be at ease, without fear of harm." (Proverbs 1:33 NIV).
If we listen to God we will live in safety and without harm. Scripture also tells us we can shed our burden upon the Lord and if we humble ourselves before Him, He will save us just in time.
"Humble yourselves, therefore, under God's mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you." (1 Peter 5:6-7 NIV)
May your day be anxiety free and filled with safety! Trust in our Savior and relax in His open arms of love.
