Reflection
When I became a Christian at 16 years old, it took me a few years to realise that I was easily anxious and feeling guilty all the time. If I stayed at home and did not do housework, I felt guilty. If I said something to someone and I was not sure of their reaction, I felt guilty. I was easily disturbed and had no idea what the peace of God was. Meditating on scriptures help me realise the truth, that I am loved by God and the peace that He gives me is supernatural. It’s about aligning myself to His goodness and being in right relation with a righteous God. He gives me righteousness that I can never attain by my own merit. I don’t have to fear man, or circumstances; I just have to fear God and trust Him, and follow His ways.
Prayer
Dear Father God, You made a way when there seems to be no way. I am not condemned because Jesus died on the cross for me. I walk in the light, no longer in darkness. I am a child of God. Thank you. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
