Take this day to catch up on your reading, pray, and rest in the presence of the Lord.
Don’t worry about anything, but in everything, through prayer and petition with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.
—Philippians 4:6–7

This is exactly what my husband and I were talking about this morning. Both of my devotionals today had the same message with different texts saying that God is faithful to provide and we just have to have faith and trust that he always does. My husband struggles with faith. We were raised very differently in this way. I have blind faith because I’ve seen so many miracles happen. He has little faith because he is guarded and scared to step out in faith most of the time. Please pray that he can begin to trust more that God will be faithful, no matter the season, and he will provide our every need. Pray that I can help show faith and devotion even when it’s not easy. God always provides for us but we sometimes have to realize he provides our NEEDS and he provides in the right timing, HIS.

I worry about a lot. An I have to remember who is in control. Because it’s not me. Never has been and never will be. God is in control and I have to stop. And be still. He causes all things to come together for good.
Happy Sunday She’s,
Jennifer A. Love the statement if you know how to worry, you know how to praise. So true!! Have a blessed and safe Labor Day.
Happy Saturday from the Grand Teton National Park! Spending the long weekend here with friends. This has been a tradition for us since we were 10 years old! If you have never been to the Tetons before they’re breathtaking. @RHONDA J – praying for your grandson that he enjoys his time with you guys. Praying he’ll feel the warmth of Jesus being around you guys!

I love this passage, since I am prone to worry . I love that Paul gives me an antidote to my worry; praying and thanking God. My pastor used to say if you know how to worry, you know how to praise. So true!!
Aw, this is my favorite piece of scripture, and it popped up at just the right time. I’m a special educator, and it has been wild at work lately. Lots of behavior this year and not enough people. Not sure how I’m going to do it all, but God had a plan. Happy Saturday everyone!
