Philippians 4:6a, "Do not be anxious about anything..."
Anxiousness is real and it is an instrument of the enemy. When we find ourselves in dark and confusing places in our lives we must ENTRUST all our cares to Jesus. He completely understands when others do not. Jesus knows the places of darkness and despair; remember the Garden of Gethsemane, remember the trial, remember the cross. But let us never forget HIS VICTORY! Christ overcame these places so we can overcome ours. Remember that Jesus walks with you and sometimes He carries you too.
Lord Jesus, when the enemy surrounds us with all sorts of evil, when we strain to see through the darkness, when we don't know if we will make it or not, touch us, whisper your promises again to us, hold us tighter, and carry us when we are too weak to stand. When life gets tough make us tougher and bolder and more trusting. We live in your strength and in your victory. Amen.
Matthew 26: 38-39 "Then He said to them, 'My soul is very sorrowful, even to death; remain here and watch with me. 39b "Father,if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: NEVERTHELESS, not as I will, but as you will."
NEVERTHELESS equals VICTORY!
Entrust everything to Jesus!

Do you think that maybe Jesus came back looking like the gardener (Mary Magdalene), so he could help us through our gardens (through our Gethsemanes)?
