Does your life lack peace? What about joy? Do you find yourself being short with others? Are you suffering from panic attacks, anxiety, or depression?
When we suffer from these negative emotions or lack a sense of fulfillment in our life on a consistent basis, we must ask ourselves what’s missing. What’s lacking in my world that’s causing this type of pain and discomfort.
Sure. Life circumstances can often knock us down. But we should not stay down. Instead, we must seek our Heavenly Father for what we need. By seeking His kingdom and His righteousness, He has promised to give us everything we need (Matthew 6:33).
When our life is anchored in our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, we find that nothing is lacking. We can have an absolute resolve about whatever circumstance we find ourselves in. Take off the coat of despair and replace it with the coat of God’s glory – – in it you will find His love, joy, peace, patience, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control, kindness, and His goodness (Galatians 5:22).
Prayer: Lord help me to see through the fog and chaos in my life. You are the Good Shepherd and I have all that I need. I lack no good thing. I have a peace of mind. My soul is restored with Your fruits – love, joy, peace, patience, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control, kindness, and goodness. In Jesus’ name, amen.
