APPROACH PROBLEMS with a light touch. When your mind moves
toward a problem area, you tend to focus on that situation so intensely
that you lose sight of Me. You pit yourself against the difficulty as if you
had to conquer it immediately. Your mind gears up for battle, and your
body becomes tense and anxious. Unless you achieve total victory,
you feel defeated.
There is a better way. When a problem starts to overshadow your
thoughts, bring this matter to Me. Talk with Me about it and look at it in
the Light of My Presence. This puts some much-needed space
between you and your concern, enabling you to see from My
perspective. You will be surprised at the results. Sometimes you may
even laugh at yourself for being so serious about something so
insignificant.
You will always face trouble in this life. But more importantly, you will
always have Me with you, helping you to handle whatever you
encounter. Approach problems with a light touch by viewing them in My
revealing Light.
Blessed are those who have learned to acclaim you,
who walk in the light of your presence, O LORD.
PSALM 89 : 15
“I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you
will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”
JOHN 16 : 33
