Real Hope: Overcoming Stress and AnxietySample

A Place of Peace

There is a place of inner rest and peace that is found by acknowledging that you don’t have what it takes to respond properly to the impossible situation you face.

Jesus waited for both Philip and Andrew to acknowledge that they had could not possibly meet the need before He acted. He wants you to know that He will wait for you to learn that lesson too.

As long as you think you have to come up with the solution, the way out, you will be anxious, stressed, irritable, and frantic. But once you come to the realization that you are not adequate for the task, that Jesus will have to step in, and you turn to Him, then you step into that place of peace as you wait for Him to unfold His plan.
