Don’t Look Back
Don’t fret or have anxiety, is that even possible? I think it is very possible. I think so much that if we put our full trust in God and never think twice that the power of prayer can take away anything. It almost seems like whenever God doesn’t immediately answer our prayers we begin to worry. Sometimes it even feels like nothing will ever happen. We all have to remember he always has a plan and we all need to keep our faith. We should not worry we should keep in prayer. God is our ruler and we have to trust in him and never doubt him. If we keep Christ at the center of our lives and remain thankful to him he was always provide and love us.
Verse 7 always seems to be the hardest part, keeping peace and not stressing about prayers being answered. Often times when I pray to God, I tend to say my prayers stressed out. It is more of begging for help than a prayer. Then I have to stop myself and think and pray in a calm manner. Then it even becomes worse when prayers are answered the opposite of what you pray for. I know that God can give me peace, he is a peacemaker. So we should all just chill out, God wants only the best for us. So keep in peace with your prayers and your life. He will always answer.
Loren, thanks for sharing my friend!
Keep your bar high for prayer, peace and faith in your life….this will pull you through always! I like what you said about “stressed out prayers.” I often find myself doing the same….and really we should be chill just like you said and allow the power of God to calm us during our prayers times and sometimes, make us stop rambling and simply be quiet and just listen for God.
Keep it up….BTW, you’re a leader, don’t forget this….take hold of this gift and use it to lead others…peace dude!

Thank you Loren, you are a very wise person. I love your “chill” and calm approach to life, to know that comes from God and trusting in him is amazing. I’m proud of you and love to see all that God is doing in your life. Being your Mom is beyond amazing. I Love you.
