Make Your World a Smaller Place!

1. Make your world a SMALLER place and try not to concern, yourself with very lofty matters you should not discern. The world can sometimes be an overwhelming place it’s true, if we let it pressure us in everything we do. 

2. The BOUNDARIES that we set within our mind are alterable, and we will not experience peace within our souls until, we set confines and limits to the things we take to heart, and all the matters causing stress we learn to set apart. 

3. The answer is to have the FAITH that God is in control. Acknowledging His sovereignty, His might we must extol. He does not need our help in caring for humanity. His power can restore our health and give security. 

4. Surrendering concerns for others helps us to regain our focus on the life that God has given us again. He wants us to take notice of the flowers and the birds, and be consoled by those we love and by their gentle words. 

5. We really can’t enjoy life when we're focused all the time, on other people's problems and for us things too sublime. If you make your world a smaller place you'll finally see, that God meant life to bring you joy and set your spirit free! 

"O Lord, my heart is not proud, nor are my eyes  haughty; I busy not myself with great things, nor with things too sublime for me. No, rather, I have stilled and quieted my soul like a weaned child. Like a weaned child on its mother’s lap, so is my soul within me.” Psalm 131:1-2

The Dark Valley

1. When in the dark valley I will not be afraid, for God’s light pervades making dark shadows fade. His presence is with me with SHELTER and might, effortlessly putting all fears to flight. 

2. Around every corner and with every bend, the GRACES we need He is ready to lend. Shadows are only what their name implies. Intangible they will not cause our demise. 

3. Always have faith in God’s POWER and care. He promises us He will always be there. He constantly waits with His healing and hope, along with each tool that will help us to cope. 

4. He also has MIRACLES planned from the start, though at times we might feel we have drifted apart. Trust Him to care for you every day, and then receive gratefully His help come what may. 

5. He’ll never forsake you no matter the cross. Rejecting Him would only be your great loss. So in the dark valley you need never have fright, for with Jesus it’s filled with the most brilliant LIGHT!

In the Early Morning

1. In the early morning when the sun begins to rise, from the darkness with its pale tint before our eyes, it can bring such COMFORT that a new day has begun, and with it the promise of great hope ‘till day is done.
2. Before the break of dawn is the most PEACEFUL time of all, when others are still fast asleep awaiting daybreak’s call. Blanketed in darkness all the earth appears asleep until it yawns and nods at early morning sun’s first peek.
3. It is such a restful time when we feel so serene, and an opportunity to just relax and DREAM.
4. Other thoughts can wait until much later in the day, but for now all those not calming should be kept at bay.
5. Before the world has risen from its slumber is the time, to only entertain the thoughts that ease your soul and mind. Try to rise up early just before the break of day, so you will gently be TRANSFORMED in the most peaceful way!
