Hurdles to Success

Do you have those days where you are feeling pressured with agenda’s, responsibilities or commitments? I sure do and it seems the more I try to hurry the more “stuff” keeps me from accomplishing all that needs to be finished or attended to. In years past this would keep me awake tossing and turning, however since I have turned my life over to God I sleep like a baby…I continue to be amazed at the peace one gets when we let go of the control… I am not saying I don’t get somewhat concerned at times, but it is never to the point that I am frantic, overwhelmed or stressed. When situations come to my mind I do the self-talk and let the Lord handle my day. God gives us the power to keep going with a peaceful and joyful heart knowing all will be well. It has taken years of training to let God do what He needs to do…I finally figured out He does not need my help…I need His! Psalm 46: 1-3 God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth be moved, and though the mountains be toppled into the depths of the sea… What a joy it is to know God clears our path and guides us through each hurdle with strength and success. As we praise His name give thanks for all the gifts we received today. Smiles & Blessings, Cynthia Collins Kaitfors
