Thumbs up

I received this in an e-mail twice and the second I will pass it on to whoever needs to read it:

1. Calm down, shut-up, and quit trippin'! Psalms 46:10
- "Be still and know that I am God." So many times we make situations more than they are due to our anxiety. CALM DOWN! God has your life under control. He knows
how to handle even the seemingly
complex situation with ease.

Then, SHUT UP! Stop having pity parties and talking about your problems all the time. Don't you know that the power of death and life is in the tongue? Stop speaking negative things into existence in your life.

QUIT TRIPPIN'! When you look at your situations through your eyes, you often read more into the situation than what's there. It's not as bad as you think.

2. Be courageous! 2 Timothy 1:7 - "For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of Love, and of a sound mind." Fear is not of God. Have the courage to step out on faith and do the seemingly impossible.

Start your own business, go into the ministry, apply for that promotion -- anything that you've been afraid
to do and you know that God has called you to do -DO!

3. Have confidence! Philippians 4:13 - "I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me." Remember, greater is He that's within you than he that's in the world. You have the power of the most
High God working in you and you have His Son
steadily making intercession for you. You have nothing to worry about! Walk with your head up! You say you have low self-esteem; somebody told you that you'd never amount to anything -- the devil is a liar!

Know that you are somebody not because Jesus said it, but because you are a child of The King!

4. Walk in the victory! Romans 8:28 - "And we know that all things work together for good to them that love! God, to them who are the called according to His purpose." Do I need to say anything else? The jury has
been out and the verdict is in - YOU WIN!
In your finances - YOU WIN!
On your job - YOU WIN!
In your relationships - YOU WIN!
In your health - YOU WIN!

God has already worked it out for you. It may not come the way you think it should come, but remember - CALM DOWN, SHUT UP, AND QUIT TRIPPIN'! He's working It out for your good.
