Do you 'freak out'?

 Well, do you?

Even though you may say you hate it when you do, you actually like it.  It feels sorta good...to your flesh nature.  It feeds it. When you freak out, you are like an unweaned child, wahhhhhh!  Got the visual? You want or don't want 'IT' right now.  Yes, you could be freaking out about losing your job, losing your home, losing your relationship, or even losing a loved one. The world says that is perfectly natural.

 Will it ever get you to where you want to be? NO. In fact, doesn't freaking out, have at it's root, a deep distrust of God? Taken a step further, you have become a 'Control-freak'

Jeremiah 29:11 states, 'For I know the plans I have for you declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future'

If you have never trusted God, it's not too late. You can trade your pain, shame, guilt and control-freaking ways for a peace, joy, trust and a love that will change your very nature. It's a peace with God that sin no longer blocks.  Your are by design, not a natural being having spiritual experiences, but you are a spiritual being, having natural experiences.  Once you get this concept, when you have these 'natural experiences', you will understand that they help you grow through the suffering.  And if we persevere, it builds our character resulting in HOPE. Hope never disappoints.  That hope is found through God's son, Jesus. Check out the prayer at the bottom of the blog!
