Day 17

DAY 17 -PROTECTING YOUR EMOTIONAL HEALTH
Part 1

And the peace of God, which surpasses every thought.
will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
-Philippians 4:7

When negative emotions threaten to hijack you day, life your thoughts and your prayers to God.

Don't worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will
drink; or about your body, what you will wear.  Isn't life more
than food and the body more than clothing?
-Matthew 6:25

Don't worry about anything, but in everything, through prayer
and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God.
-Philippians 4:6

Therefore don't worry about tomorrow, because tomorrow will
worry about itself.  Each day has enough trouble of its own.
-Matthew 6:34

I will be with you when you pass through the waters...
when  you walk through the fire...
the flame will not burn your.
For I the Lord your God, he Holy One of Israel, and your Savior.
-Isaiah 43:2-3

Worry and stress has taken over my life in the past two days!  I don't know how things are going to work out with a certain situation, but God is the God of all the universe and He will make all things work out like they are supposed to.  I just really hate the waiting game!

Pray that the Lord will provide to money to pay for my summer classes!!  I pay the maximum I possibly can out of every check but it still won't be enough.  Hopefully with increased hours at work and working for Julie that I will be able to pay most of it, so that I don't have to barrow any more from my grandma.  I've decided that I have to sell my camera, just so I can use it to pay for school.

The past two days have not been good at all.  Things are hard right now... and the light at the end of the tunnel is VERY dim! :-/

The busier we are, the easier it is to worry,
the great the temptation to worry,
the greater the need to be alone with God.
-Charles Stanley

We sometimes fear to bring our troubles to God because
we think they must seem small to Him.  But, if they are
large enough to vex and endanger our welfare, they are
large enough to touch His heart of love.
-R.A. Torrey

Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow;
it empties today of its strength.
-Corrie ten Boom

The spiritual life is a life beyond moods.  It is a life in
which we choose joy and do not allow ourselves to become
victims of passing feelings of happiness or depression.
-Henri Nouwen
