Listen to the Word

Humble yourselves, therefore, under God's mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time.  Cast all your anxiety on him, because he cares for you.
(1 Peter 5:6-7)



One key to releasing anxiety is to trust God's timing.  Peter promises that God will lift you up "in due time."  God does not always come through as quickly as we would like.  We would prefer to have instant relief from all of our troubles, and sometimes he lets those troubles linger so that He can use them to grow us and shape us.  We sometimes wish He would hurry, but his timing is always perfect.  If you know that God's hand is mighty, and you know that He cares for you, and you know that He is always right on time, then you have no reason to be overcome with anxiety. 

Live the Word

Cast your biggest source of stress on God in prayer, and ask Him to handle it in His perfect timing.
