I am grateful.

So grateful to God.

I'm grateful that in this season and times, he helps me every day to eliminate worry.

Worry and anxiety take away the focus from God to me, and that should never be. Life is not about me and will never be about me. It's about God and what he is doing per season.

So I rest. I know that even if the earth shakes and fall, God will never shake. And because he is stable, I'm stable. He is my stability. So I rest.

I have peace that can't be explained. I've learnt that my success is not dependent on things around me or where I am. God is in me and he never fails. I carry success. If I find myself in the messiest place on earth, I'll still do well. So I have peace.

I sleep without fear and also wake up without fear. My heart is filled with love, there's no space anywhere for bitterness. The happenings around me don't have the capacity or power to make me bitter. God has filled my heart with love. I speak love, not evil.

I'm trying so hard to explain why I don't worry. I want you to understand the peace, love and rest that I have. But words fail me. Like I said earlier, this passeth my understanding. It's something I can't do on my own no matter how hard I try. It's simply supernatural.

So I wake every morning grateful to God. Thank you, Jesus. I love doing life this way, a life focused on God and being with him.

Thank you, Jesus.
