DAY 6

Anxiety should never be found in a believer. In spite of the magnitude, quantity and diversity of our trials, afflictions and difficulties, anxiety should not exist under any circumstances.

This is because we have a Father in heaven who is almighty, who loves his children as he loves his “one and only Son” (John 3:16), and whose complete joy and delight it is to continually assist them under all circumstances. We should heed his Word, which says, “Do not grieve, for the joy of the Lord is your strength” [Nehemiah 8:10].

… We are to take everything to God—little things, very little things, even what the world calls trivial things … living all day long in holy fellowship with our heavenly Father and our precious Lord Jesus. We should develop something of a spiritual instinct, causing us to immediately turn to God when a concern keeps us awake at night. During those sleepless nights, we should speak to him, bringing our various concerns before him, no matter how small they may be. Also speak to the Lord about any trial you are facing or any difficulties you may have in your family or professional life.

… Even if we have no possessions, there is one thing for which we can always be [joyful]—that he has saved us from hell. We can also give thanks that he has given us his holy Word, his Holy Spirit, and the most precious gift of all—his Son. Therefore when we consider all this, we have abundant reasons for [joy].

May this be our goal!
