Hire the Holy Spirit

-
Our inner worriers prefer to work the night shift. So we stir awake, then we stay awake. And we walk through our days unrested, unnerved and unprepared for what life might throw our way. The thing is, worry is a horrible tenant. It lives rent-free in your soul, and furthermore, it demands to be paid — with the deposit of your precious thought life. Paul says there’s a better way: “Don’t fret or worry,” he wrote to the Philippians – and to all of us. “Let petitions and praises shape your worries into prayers, letting God know your concerns. Before you know it, a sense of God’s wholeness, everything coming together for good, will come and settle you down. It’s wonderful what happens when Christ displaces worry at the center of your life.” (Philippians 4:6, The Message) Fire the worry-wart. Hire the Holy Spirit. He’s already applied for the job, and is abundantly qualified.   ~ by Jennifer Dukes LeE (IN)COURAGE

14 Days of prayer for your husband Day 12   Have mercy   on us, O God,  according to your unfailing love;   according to your great compassion   blot out   our transgressions.    Wash away   all our iniquity  and cleanse   us from our sins.  For we know our transgressions,  and our sins are always before us.   Against You, You only, have we sinned   and done what is evil in Your sight;    so You are right in Your verdict  and justified when You judge.    Surely we were sinful   at birth,   sinful from the time our mothers conceived us. Yet You desired faithfulness even in the womb;  You taught us wisdom   in that secret place.  Cleanse   us with hyssop,   and we will be clean;  wash us, and we will be whiter than snow.   Let us hear joy and gladness;    let the bones   You have crushed rejoice.  Hide your...
