When things look like the world is falling apart and it starts to get you stressed out, do you ever say, “stop the world I want off”? Just stop for a moment and look at the things going on that is positive in your life. What we should do is daily look at the good things in your life and then thank God for them. There are so many people whose lives are torn apart by some kind of misfortune. What is going on in your life? Do you have a roof over your head? Many don’t, unless you count a bridge, tent, cardboard box a roof. Do you have food in the frig? Many don’t even have a fridge. I know we get physically and emotionally exhausted because of all this evil going on in the world, but hasn’t God protected you from it? Then let’s not think about what’s going on in the world, let’s think about how God has protected us when the world around us is falling apart. Think of it then thank Him. Don’t let all this chaos affect your health, your mood, or your relationship with God. Psalm 91 has proven God doesn’t lie because He has protected us just as He said He would. Give Him the praise and leave the stress to the worldly who have no promise or hope! Just remember, when things are falling apart, God’s plan is coming together.
