every day and every way.
Organize every nerve in
your body to help you stay
in touch with God's nearness.
Fretfulness and anxiety are
like monsters in the closet.
Get up, go over and
throw open the door, yelling
AM-SCRAY! Get lost!
Trust the deepest longings
of your heart with the One
who takes great delight
in loving you. Make
gratitude your point of
orientation every day,
and do everything you
can to stay on its trail.
If you practice these things,
your life will experience the kind
of buoyancy that will keep you afloat
even in the worst storm. Indeed,
the greatest peace possible is
the fearless confidence
that nothing essential
can be taken from you.
In the grip of Serenity's Presence
you'll be able to think clearly
in the midst of turmoil, and
your heart will guide you,
even in the worst wilderness,
to the place of refuge and nourishment.
Shower encouragement wherever you go.
Ken Sehested, inspired by Philippians 4: 4-7
