We live in an era where people have become blind to what the Lord is doing. People are also busy and do not take time to seek the Lord. May we be an exception.

After Christ’s death and resurrection, may we rely on God’s grace to see what the Lord is doing and respond accordingly. Isaiah 42:1-7.

Anxiety is a common thing for us all. The issues is, do we carry the burdens causing anxiety by ourselves or do we share with God’s people about them? Have we learnt to take those burdens to God in prayer so that we are less anxious? We can only do that if we trust Him and others. We need to believe that He truly cares about us, and also ask Him to show us people who do too. 1 Peter 5:7.
