Episode 359 - Show Notes:
- It’s often that the uncertainties of the future cause us to feel stressed and overwhelmed. This can lead us to feeling unhappy in the present.
- When you are overwhelmed it can feel like you are the only one who is struggling, but, here is an important truth: Everyone listening to this podcast episode is going through something. It’s called life. We all have insecurities, anxieties, and fears. We all get discouraged, weary, and stressed out.
- Where did Jesus say we find peace? In Him! If we are daily cultivating a close relationship with Him, we’ll have his peace. If not, it’s likely that you and I will feel overwhelmed by our struggles.
- We are not overcomes in our own strength, we must find a strength greater than our own, and we only find this strength in Christ.
- Whatever you are going through today, don’t let your circumstances cause you to withdraw from God, His Word, or His church. Your feelings might tempt you to say, “I don’t feel like reading the Bible or I don’t feel like going to church.” This is exactly what the enemy wants you to feel. He knows that when you get into God’s Word and when you get around other believers you will find strength.
John 16:33 - “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”
