Just me trying to be honest with God.

“If you're happy and you know it, what combination of prescription meds are you on?” Unknown

The stayed mind is a peaceful mind, when the heart remains focused on God’s promises rather than our worries. My experience has taught me that keeping your focus is sometimes easier said than done. Imagine walking in a field full of gnats buzzing around your head. These pesky insects, like our concerns, can be hard to ignore.  Of course, God gives many graces to help. Bug spray is one, Xanax may be another. Use meds if you need them, even give God thanks for them, but don't neglect to trust God with your life. Your faith in Him, not your feelings will see you through. “You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in You.” Is.26 Conversations Within” ts 1/11/2016
