Regardless, the days will come when there does not seem to be any way out. These days are full of many things and from these events that may come, stresses of all kinds may be present. Anxiety and panic are unfortunate outcomes of stresses that have been present for a long, long season. Anxiety, panic and stress is not of the LORD; it is a part of our humanity that tells us that we are human and that we cannot walk in this journey alone. We are to call upon the one that called us and we are to look to HIM to help us with our emotional battles. This does mean that we have to call out to HIM. We can do this in the same manner as when we call out to one of our friends and ask for their assistance and help. When we call upon the LORD, we call down all the ability to help us with our every need. It comes when we need it at the most perfect time. Yes, HE is the GOD who is an on-time GOD. HE comes when we cannot even possibly believe that anyone could understand. Our LORD hears it all and so asks us to ask HIM. The greatest reward is HIS joy! It is healing, comforting, directing, engaging and just what is not expected. This joy will teach the soul a new way to think, confess, guide in the manner of speech, and to be a schoolmaster for our hearts. When we understand what joy can do for us, we can be cleansed of all things. This joy comes when we have fellowship with the LORD and that our faith draws us closer to HIM. It can be done and it happens every day.
Joyfully pressing on. Encouraging on!
