| Wednesday, February 9 Sitting in a Puddle To be spiritually minded is life and peace.
Romans 8:6b When we're disappointed or distraught--whether about health or money or prodigals or whatever--we need a biblical plan for recovering God's peace. Perhaps you're separated from someone you love, and the loneliness is intense. To love is to sometimes hurt. We need the peace that exceeds understanding. Try underlining Bible verses. Sit down with a cup of tea and search the Scriptures looking for verses to underline and memorize. Try journaling. Write out your feelings, but also jot down the verses God gives you. You can also compose written prayers as the Psalm writers did long ago. Try reading. Find an inspirational book. Whether an old classic like Pilgrim's Progress or something just off the press, read it with a highlighter in hand. Try exercise. Even something as simple as walking around the block can clear your mind. Whatever you do, don't fall into self-pity. Sitting around in a puddle of worry isn't good for anyone. Whatever ailment we face, the Word of God is the medicine and the peace of God the cure. Read-Thru-the-Bible
