Picture: Julia and Frida picking up some food for their first Vuku meeting.*
Cast your cares on the Lord and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous be shaken.
Psalms 55:22
Written by Papama
We are approaching the end of the year, and for many people, this is a busy time and we might be feeling a bit overwhelmed. As the schedules become busier, it might seem like nothing is slowing down. During times like this, it is easy to feel burdened and lose hope.
But there is good news! When we feel as though we cannot handle what is to come, we can turn to God. We are not called to rely on our own strength. No matter how big an obstacle in front of us may seem, if we rely on God’s power, we can overcome it. In addition, God’s strength acts as a shield from feelings of anxiety we may experience. When we fully put our trust in Him, He walks alongside us.
Whatever trials we may be going through, we can take them to the Lord, and He will give us the strength to walk through them. When we fully put our trust in Him rather than ourselves, we will not be shaken.
