How many times during the day we get stressed out because of something very little?
When we do get stressed out, our peace goes away, and it carries with it our joy out.
I hate being in that frustrated mode when you lose control of yourself and think only about your feelings.
I read today that "God put the head above the heart so that feelings won't go over reasoning". If only that was easy to do, everybody would be "happy".
I found a saying that affirms that 90% of all people seek "happiness", whatever that may mean to different people. But how about that true joy? - We shouldn't need new cars and brand new furniture to have joy, our titles shouldn't be the reason why we have peace at night.
I like to remember what Jesus said, the one who lives for his own life will lose it, but the one who lays it down, will have eternal life.
Lord, help us remember that so we can have joy, so we can detach from all things and live a life that will honour God and will give us eternal life. In Jesus wonderful name, Amen.
