You, Lord, give me true peace

I was lost and you found me. I was weak and you gave me strength. My heart was heavy and you helped me carry it. My mind raced with worry and you calmed my thoughts. My life so intense and you gave me rest. I gave you my troubles and you took my fears with them. My spirit was broken and you mended it with gain. You are good oh Lord, I am so grateful to be a child of the most high Lord. You were with me during the pain and I embraced you with eagerness, I am sorry for not seeing you during the good times, I promise to work on that. I am learning to not pray for my wishes but only that your will be done. You oh God, know what is best and I give you my life and trust you will take care of it. I am yours Lord. I love you and long more than anything to someday hear “well done good and faithful servant”. I seek to please you Lord…thank you for saving a wretch like me. You, Lord, give me true peace, I depend on you, and I trust you.

-Isaiah 26:3

-Matthew 11:28-30

Dr. Phil self help plan… nah! Getting closer to God.

There is no formula, self-help plan, or outline to achieve what you truly desire. What works for me may not work for you, but one thing is universal: if you’re saved, ask the Holy Spirit to guide you, grant wisdom, and take control of your life—then submit and allow Him to lead. For me, the […]
