Random Ramblings Of An Imperfect Girl, Loved by a Perfect God.

I don’t know about you, but my brain can not and will not shut up for anything. It’s a constant hum of random information, questions, observations, and my least favorite of all, anxious thoughts. Not to mention the in pouring of outside distractions, media, and opinions. It is sensory overload. We can’t begin to imagine all the wonders that God can do. If he can calm the storm with a word, he can calm the storm in your mind just the same.

“But he was in the stern, asleep on the cushion. And they woke him and said to him, “Teacher, do you not care that we are perishing?” And he awoke and rebuked the wind and said to the sea, “Peace! Be still!” And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm. He said to them, “Why are you so afraid? Have you still no faith?” And they were filled with great fear and said to one another, “Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?””

Mark 4:38-41 ESV

Jesus can calm the storm in you. He can quiet your fears and anxiety just like he calmed the sea. The still small voice of God will give you clarity and peace in the midst of all the madness. Surrendering your mind to God is difficult because I know for me personally, I strive for perfection and control. When I can not control my circumstances, I shut down. The overwhelming anxiety takes hold and panic sets in. The only thing I can do is cry out to God. I have no strength to do anything on my own. When I cry, God meets me where I am. He calms my thoughts and he breaks through the worry. He is the only one that can break through the noise and bring me back to his presence. I know I’m not alone in this and I pray that if you are reading this that God will calm the noise in your mind so you can hear his voice and receive his peace. Have a blessed evening y’all!
