“Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The Spirit is willing but the body and mind are weak.”

Just when things are going well, do you ever feel like you just can’t get ahead? No matter what you do, something or someone alters your path or plans. In my own life, I face problems almost every day – at home, work, financial, personal. In most cases this fear is just something in our minds and we really don’t have anything to worry about. I once read that fear is “imagination misused.” If you find yourself like this, pray about it. Let it go, stop trying to do it yourself and focus on Jesus. He is the answer! We need to learn to turn fear and worry into opportunities – chances to be pruned and sharpened. “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me!” (Philippians 4:13).

LORD JESUS, THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITIES YOU GIVE ME AND THE WISDOM TO KNOW HOW TO USE THEM. AMEN.
