What’s consuming your thoughts right now? Doubt, Fear, Anger, Bitterness. . .Satan knows that what Consumes us –Controls us.

So, for the one going to bed tonight feeling …

• Weighed down by fear and worst-case scenario thinking.
• Consumed with anxiety because of situations you don’t know how to fix.
• Stressed out, maxed out, and worn out by all that’s on your plate right now.

Hold on to this promise: God not only has the whole world in His hands; He’s holding the details of your life in His faithful hands as well. While He may not always fix everything right away, we can fix our thoughts on the truths in His Word.

I know life can demand so much from you and you constantly feel like you have to keep up. But Jesus wants better for us than a life of crawling into our beds at night exhausted, depleted, and dreading tomorrow.

Listen to this invitation: “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest” (Matthew 11:28 NIV). You see, the kind of soul-rest we need won’t come from endlessly scrolling, taking more vacation days, or pretending we’re ok. No, it’s Jesus Himself who provides rest.

Here’s a prayer to help us fix our eyes on God:

Father God, I won’t always understand my situations. But I do understand Your Goodness to me. Help me replace the fears and doubts threatening to consume me with truth. Help me hand over all my bitterness and anger so your healing work can begin in me. I know You love me, You are for me, and I absolutely can trust you with all of my heart. In Your name Jesus,  I love you.
