The Importance of Being There
I have much to write to you, but I do not want to use paper and ink. Instead, I hope to visit you and talk with you face to face, so that our joy may be complete.—2 John 1:12 (NIV)
Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes?—Matthew 6:25 (NIV)
On stressful days, you might feel as if no one understands what you’re going through. Remind yourself that you are not alone. Jesus said to take heart. He has overcome the world. His presence helps you rise from worldly problems that weigh you down. His glorious victory can change and transform every moment of your life.
Heavenly Father, I claim Your peace. You are in control.
