If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n1. QUIT WORRYING:
\n<\/strong><\/span>Life has dealt you a blow and all you do is sit and
\n<\/strong><\/span>worry. Have you forgotten that I am here to take all your burdens and carry them for you? \u00a0Or do you just enjoy fretting over every little thing that comes your way .<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n2. PUT IT ON THE LIST:
\n<\/strong><\/span>Something needs done or taken care of. Put it on the list. No, not YOUR list. Put it on MY to-do-list. Let ME be the one to take care of the problem. I can’t help you until you turn it over to Me. And although My to-do-list is long, I am after all… God. I can take care of anything you put into My hands. In fact, if the truth were ever really known, I take care of a lot of things for you that you never even realize.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n3. TRUST ME:
\n<\/strong><\/span>Once you’ve given your burdens to Me, quit trying to take them back. Trust in Me. Have the faith that I will take care of all your needs, your problems and your trials. Problems with the kids? Put them on My list. Problem with finances? Put it on My list.
\n<\/strong><\/span>Problems with your emotional roller coaster? \u00a0For My sake, put it on My list. I want to help you. All you have to do is ask.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n4. LEAVE IT ALONE:
\n<\/strong><\/span>Don’t wake up one morning and say, “Well, I’m feeling much stronger now, I think I can handle it from here.”
\n<\/strong><\/span>Why do you think you are feeling stronger now? It’s simple. You gave Me your burdens and I’m taking care of them. I also renew your strength and cover you in my peace. Don’t you \u00a0know that if I give you these problems back, you will be right back where you started? Leave them with Me and forget about them. Just let Me do my job.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n5. TALK TO ME:
\n<\/strong><\/span>I want you to forget a lot of things. Forget what was making you crazy. \u00a0Forget the worry and the fretting because you know I’m in control. But there’s one thing I pray you never forget. Please, don’t forget to talk to Me – OFTEN! I love YOU! I want to hear your voice.
\n<\/strong><\/span>I want you to include Me in on the things going on in your life. I want to hear you talk about your friends and family. Prayer is simply you having a conversation with Me. I want to be your dearest friend.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n6. HAVE FAITH:
\n<\/strong><\/span>I see a lot of things from up here that you can’t see from where you are. Have faith in Me that I know what I’m doing. Trust Me; you wouldn’t want the view from My eyes. I will continue to care for you, watch over you, \u00a0and meet your needs. You only have to trust Me.
\n<\/strong><\/span>Although I have a much bigger task than you, it seems as if you have so much trouble just doing your simple part. How hard can trust be?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n7. SHARE:
\n<\/strong><\/span>You were taught to share when you were only two years old. When did you forget? That rule still applies.
\n<\/strong><\/span>Share with those who are \u00a0less fortunate than you.
\n<\/strong><\/span>Share your joy with those who need encouragement.
\n<\/strong><\/span>Share your \u00a0laughter with those who haven’t heard any in \u00a0such a long time. Share your tears with those who have forgotten how to cry. Share your faith with those who have none.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n8. BE PATIENT:
\n<\/strong><\/span>I managed to fix it so in just one lifetime you could have so many diverse experiences. You grow from a child to an adult, have children, change jobs manytimes, learn many trades, \u00a0travel to so many places, meet thousands \u00a0of people, and experience so much. How
\n<\/strong><\/span>can you be so impatient then when it takes Me a little longer than you expect to handle something on My to-do-list? Trust in My timing, for My timing is perfect. Just because I created the entire universe in only six days, everyone thinks I should \u00a0always rush, rush, rush.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n9. BE KIND:
\n<\/strong><\/span>Be kind to others, for I love them just \u00a0as much as I love you. They may not dress \u00a0like you, or talk like you, or live the same way \u00a0you do, but I still love you all. Please try to get along, for My sake. I
\n<\/strong><\/span>created each of you different in some way. It would be too boring if you were all identical. \u00a0Please, know I love each of your differences.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n10. LOVE YOURSELF:
\n<\/strong><\/span>As much as I love you, how can you not love yourself?
\n<\/span>You were created by me for one reason only — to be loved, and to love in return. I am a God of Love. Love Me. Love your neighbors. But also love yourself. It makes My heart ache when I see you so angry with yourself when things go wrong. You are very precious to me. Don’t ever forget……<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n
