belief precedes behavior.

So let diseases rage. Let the powers that be flex their muscles. Let the economy collapse. Let storm winds blow.

But because of what I believe -

because I have erected, as Max Lucado puts it, “cast iron stabilizers” in the center of my soul,

I can hold fast to my faith in God, in spite of my circumstances.

Want to change how your heart is reacting?

How my heart is reacting?

To perplexity. To evil. To sinister motives that could affect me. To calamity. To uncertainty. To isolation. To loneliness. To anger. To fear.

Change what you believe.

Relinquish control (that isn’t really control anyway) to a God Who IS in control.

And who has promised a wonderful forever.
