Made Perfect in Weakness

Sometime I get anxious...it comes with being a deep thinker. I always have so much going through my mind. Like today, I am preparing to go back to California for my 3rd semester of Bible College. I have been blessed with so many opportunities and there is so much I want to do. Of course I get anxious because my focus is totally on the wrong things. I try to compartmentalize my life. I have to remind myself that no matter what GOD IS MY PRIORITY! Only then does my anxiety seem to melt away. It is easy to get discouraged also by negative comments (like you can't do all of that) , but then I am promised I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me! If my focus is on the Lord then not my will, but His will will be done. Why should I worry? He said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore, I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest in me. 2 Corinthians 12:9 I pray that I hold tight to His grace, because it is sufficient for today, so I do not need to worry about tomorrow. When my thoughts get cloudy with the things of this world I need to set time aside to find rest in the pasture.

Feathers...lyrics by Anna Meyer

You’ve searched my heart
To know me O God
That I might be completely yours

To be loved by you is the greatest thing I could ask for
To be loved by you this is all that I hope for

Your feathers cover me
I rest between your shoulders
This place of peace
Where my heart is close to yours

To be loved by you is the greatest thing I could ask for
To be loved by you this is all that I hope for

I love you
I love you
I love you

To be loved by you is the greatest thing I could ask for
To be loved by you you this is all that I hope for
