“When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought me joy.” Psalms‬ ‭94:19‬ ‭NIV

Do you ever feel like life is a tug-of-war‬‬ between expectations and reality? Between schedules, to-do lists, and deadlines; anxiety sets in. Good news, we have a God who can console our anxiety with joy.

On this Mindset Monday, what war are you facing? Have you already let the anxiety set in? Or have you sat with God and allowed Him to console you with joy? Let’s be proactive and make the choice to win the day with God. Let’s choose joy over anxiety. When faced with busy schedules, deadlines, and to-do lists, take it all one day, one step, one task at a time. Let’s pray together!

Heavenly Father, We surrender this Monday and this week to you. We lay our schedules, deadlines, and to-do lists at your feet. Only you know what the day and week will hold. We surrender control and perfection. We ask in return that you console us with joy. Help us not to forget to give ourselves grace as it has already been given. Today is the day you have made, let us rejoice and be glad in it. In the name of Jesus, we pray, Amen.
