Beloved,
praise Jesus.Am certain u're doing well.Be refreshed by the thoughts below

To have the latest hairdo; to wear the most fashionable clothes; to drive the hottest car; to eat at the four star restaurants: we all like to splurge on occasion. But often our lifestyles are centered around the wrong things. In order to achieve those things, we get stressed and anxious about having the right image, the right accessories, even to the point of over-spending, over-charging, and over-indulging."Then Jesus said to his disciples 'Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat; or about your body, what you will wear. Life is more than food, and the body more than clothes. Consider the ravens. They do not sow or reap, they have no storeroom or barn; yet God feeds them. And how much more valuable you are than birds! Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life? Since you cannot do this very little thing, why do you worry about the rest?" Jesus knows our stress-out hearts. He knows that we put value in the wrong things. He want us to see beyond just food and clothing. Life is about living with abandon for the Lord!We often get stressed out and live our lives anxiously and unhappily. We get caught up in the worldly desires for more and more, not better and better. Jesus tells us point blank: stress won't add to our lives. Only the joy of living in God's grace will we experience life fully, today and forever.With love,
