I usually don't watch the news because it is so depressing- murders, homocides, job losses ect... The other day I turned on the morning news because I had a few minutes before I headed out the door. HUGE MISTAKE!! It sounded as if the world was coming to an end. The bailout package is going to take too long, so they're going to try and devise a way to get money into the economy sooner. The foreign markets are just a volitale as ours. The Europeans are working on getting money into their economy to boost consumer confidence. It just went on and on.
After turning off the television I realized I was extremely depressed, anxious, worried, and a host of other negative emotions. I started to chant a "mantra": Who's in charge? God's in charge. What has he promised? To take care of me. What does he want for me? The best. I repeated it over and over and over. The devil is definately inundating our society right now with a spirit of fear and worry.
A portion of a verse came to mind later that day, I later found out it was Psalm 50:10 "For every beast of the forest is Mine, The cattle on a thousand hills." Everything is HIS. There are times we have to go through trials to strengthen us, but He's promised to take care of us.
