Skip the Stress #3

Hi,

One day, my schedule, deadlines, and obligations were crawling up my neck and tightening their hold.

You know that feeling when you’re so overwhelmed, you don’t know what to do first?

So I got out a piece of paper and pen, and asked God: “Just tell me what you want me to do, and I’ll do it.”

I then opened my Bible and immediately read where Jesus was talking with a man who was blind. Jesus was asking him, “What would you have me do for you?”

I read it again. Jesus asked: “What would you have me do for you?”

Rather amazed, I picked up my pen and began writing an entirely different list…to God.

This, I have found, is characteristic of God. Reminding us that he is there. That he cares.

This will explain how God gently influences our lives and changes us.
