OVERWHELMED=DON'T WORRY
Have you ever felt
OVERWHELMED=felt like life
Or things were too BIG
For you?
That is the WAY=
I was feeling like last week=
Putting too MUCH PRESSURE
On myself
But I am doing better=
SETTLING back into the
WORDS OF GOD
Feeling
The JOY OF GOD
Once again
Overwhelmed=don't worry
“Can any of you
BY WORRYING
Add a single moment
To your life-span?
WHY are you ANXIOUS
About clothes?” Matthew 6:27
The human capacity
For WORRY is boundless
The suffering
Caused by anxiety
Can be immense
OVERWHELMED=DON'T WORRY
Feel the JOY of God
Once again
“These things I remember
As I pour out
My soul
How I used to go
To the House of God
Under the protection
Of the MIGHTY ONE
With shouts of JOY
And praise
Among the festive throng” Psalm 42 :4
“A wise son
BRINGS JOY
To his Father
But a foolish son
Brings grief
To his mother” Proverbs 10:1
“Gladness and JOY
Will overtake them
And sorrow and sighing
Will flee away” Isaiah 51:11
I used to ASK my dad
Why he wasn't more
CRITICAL of me
He told me “Son=no one
Could ever be
As hard on you
As you are on yourself”
So today=on the eve
Of FATHER'S DAY=my advice
Is this=
LIGHTEN UP!
Try not to force things
Don't feel overwhelmed
And don't worry=BE HAPPY
FEEL THE JOY of God today!
“But may the righteous
Be glad
And REJOICE before God
May they be HAPPY
And joyful” Psalm 68:3
What can we do
When we feel OVERWHELMED?
Trust in GOD THE FATHER
And Jesus
ACCEPT the God of LOVE-
Who tends and cares for us
And who alone
Is the CURE=for anxiety
And DON'T WORRY=
BE HAPPY in the Lord
In Jesus' name=and in the name
Of our ever JOYFUL=God the loving FATHER!
