Scripture: John 14:27
"I am leaving you with a gift-peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So don't be troubled or afraid " NLT
A young man whose life is in severe turmoil has a dream. In his dream he has a discussion with the Lord. As they are talking the young man asks the Lord a question, "What type of changes would be appropriate for my life? The Lord responds, "Are you sure you want to know." The young man thinks for a moment and says, "yes, this is heavy on my heart."
Jesus accommodates the young man as follows:
1. Stop Worrying: I am here to take all your burdens and carry them for you
2. Put it on MY list: I can't help you until you turn your burdens over to Me.
3. Talk to ME: I want to be your best friend and hear all about your day.
3. Talk to ME: I want to be your best friend and hear all about your day.
4. Leave it alone: Place your burdens with ME and forget about them.
5. Trust ME: Know that when you ask I will answer --- yes, no or wait.
6. Love Yourself: You are very precious to ME just the way you are.
7. Have Faith: That I will do the best for you in all circumstances.
8. Share: Giving is not a money problem --- it's a faith problem.
9. Be Patient: MY timing is in your best interest and perfect.
10. Be Kind: To yourself and to all others.
Then the young man awoke with a peace he had never felt before. Jesus loves you! Amen!!
