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)

Feeling Frazzled
Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.—Philippians 4:6 (NIV)
If you feel as if there is never enough time in the day, your nerves are frazzled, and you are too tired to think straight, carve out some time and lift your concerns to God. Sit by yourself, close your eyes and empty your mind. These moments keep you in touch with God, who speaks to us when we are relaxed enough to hear His wisdom. Christ said, “The Kingdom of God is within” (Luke 17:21); look quietly inward and discover His Kingdom.
Heavenly Father, help me still my mind so I may hear Your guiding voice.
