Focus on Jesus
“Martha, Martha,” the Lord answered, “you are worried and upset about many things, but few things are needed—or indeed only one. Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her.”—Luke 10:41–42 (NIV)
God is not the author of confusion but of peace.—1 Corinthians 14:33 (NKJV)
WHEN LIFE SEEMS to be spinning out of control, focus on this verse. Ask the Author of Peace to help you regain your sense of calm. Take a deep breath and rest in the understanding that God provides peace above and through the confusion.
Heavenly Father, when I keep my eyes on You, I can relax knowing You have everything under control.

For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways.—Psalm 91:11 (NIV)
