I’m not going to lie to you all, this week has been rough for me. I’ve been having to make big life decisions while my brain is at maximum stress levels. I haven’t been leaning on God like I know I need to. I’m sure this is relatable to many of you. We all go through tough times where stress and anxiety take over, and the one thing that can bring us peace falls to the side.
Today is Good Friday, the day on which Jesus was crucified. Is there any better day to bring me back into the relationship I so desperately need?
I can cast all my worries on Him because 2000 years ago He said: “It is finished.”
It is finished. That simple sentence is so powerful.
Anxiety? Finished.
Stress? Finished.
Doubt? Worry? Fear? All finished because of His amazing grace.
I am moving forward knowing that my life is in His hands.
Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful. -Colossians 3:15
This Easter weekend I am making God my priority again, and I pray that if you have found yourself distant from Him you would do the same. I would love to pray for each of you on this journey, please leave any and all prayer requests in the comments below.
I’ve definitely been feeling that distance lately. Thank you for your encouragement.
This is exactly what I needed to hear today!! I so appreciate you saying this. Looking forward to more posts!
Such a good message! Thank you for sharing, Erin. Your vulnerability is refreshing!
I totally forgot it was even Good Friday, and the awakening your post gave me was so humbling. I always love seeing what you have to say, keep it up!
I look forward to reading these posts so much. I also had a difficult week, and it is so wonderful to hear about others with similar experiences who are bringing them back to Christ. Thank you.
I always need to remind myself of this too. Thanks!
