On Anxiety & Worry

"You of little faith, why are you so fearful?"
This sentence hit me like a bomb. Today while i was doing my morning QT, i was filled with anxiety and worry. It started when we had our general mtg and changes must be made… for us to be used effectively by our Dad here. These changes require us to have our faith to go higher another level. Knowing my very limited resources and contacts, i saw myself panicking.
Very much like the disciples in the story huh? When they saw the storm getting stronger and the waves higher, they panicked. They forgot that they are with JC, they forgot that they are with the Saviour. They focused on the circumstances, and bacame self-conscious of the situation that their in.
Like me… I forgot that i am here in this place because He asked me to be here. I forgot that He who promised is faithful. Instead of focusing on the circumstances and situation that i am in right now, i should have focused on Him and His promises.
I know i have been praying to G to increase my faith…but when things do not go well, or like i want it to be i worried. Fear and anxiety engulfed me like the waves.
Now, as i yarp to G to increase my faith… i also asked Him to increase my patience and that He would give me a stronger back to endure hardships and always give me joy and peace in my heart that He is always with me and will never leave me.
Ooopssss…. by the way, G reminded me of one thing… i only need a faith as small as a mustard seed to move mountain… hehehe.. isn’t He a great G?
