Listen "What is keeping you awake?"
Episode Synopsis
Psalms 91:5. You shall not be afraid of the terror by night nor of the arrow that flies by day.What is keeping you awake? I found myself getting wrapped up in something hard, very hard for two weeks. I was trying to be there for someone and love them and pray for them, because I do love them. I do believe they could be set free. I was consumed by their choices, their pain, and I remained in it. I felt myself slowly fading into this fear. I’m not a fearful person at all. I was surrounded by evil thoughts and ways.Philippians 1:9 says, In this, I pray that your love may abound still more and more and knowledge in all discernment.I am a big feeler, which is good because I love the gift of discernment, but this was getting so intense. I cried out and I said, I don’t want to feel anymore, God. It’s too hard and it’s too painful, but that really wasn’t the problem. I was carrying a situation I wasn’t meant to carry. I was holding on tight. I didn’t want to let go. I wanted to try and help God control. I wanted His timing to be right now.I had to remove myself. I had to say, okay, God, it’s your way. I had to gain my peace back. I had to think on holy and good things while this disheartening situation still remained. There were many sleepless nights and days I would be afraid. I would repeat this verse, Psalms, 91:5, You shall not be afraid of the terror by night, nor of the arrow that flies by day.If you are carrying a burden you aren’t meant to carry, ask God to take it. He will call us to love, sow seeds, pray, and be there. But if the choices of others aren’t changed, He will also call us out of it. Be surrendered to Him fully and follow His ever loving lead. Be set free in Jesus’ mighty name today.Thanks again, and I love that you are here to listen to Simple Truth.
