 An anxious heart weighs a man down, but a kind word cheers him up. Proverbs 12:25 Finding God in the Chaos

  Troubles are normal and God is present.  Share your anxieties…  … with others. Finding God in the Chaos

 Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:4-7 Finding God in the Chaos

  Troubles are normal and God is present.  Share your anxieties…  … with others.  …with God. Finding God in the Chaos

 To keep me from becoming conceited because of these surpassingly great revelations, there was given me a thorn in my flesh, a messenger of Satan, to torment me. 8 Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me. 9 But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Finding God in the Chaos

 Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. 10 That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong. 2 Corinthians 12:7-10 Finding God in the Chaos

  Troubles are normal and God is present.  Share your anxieties…  … with others.  …with God.  God’s strength becomes evident in our weakness.  Reflect on God’s presence each day. Finding God in the Chaos

 Yet this I call to mind and therefore I have hope: Because of the L ORD ’s great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. I say to myself, “The L ORD is my portion; therefore I will wait for him.” Lamentations 3:21-24 Finding God in the Chaos
