I received this via email & thought I would post it. An encouraging word for us all 🙂

Calm Down/Shut Up/Quit Trippin’ -Author Unknown
Psalm 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 situations with ease.
SHUT UP!
Stop having pity parties and talking about your business 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 yours life and in others.
QUIT TRIPPIN’!
When you look at your situations through your eyes, you often read more into the situation than what is there. It’s not as bad as you think particularly if God is in your life; Stop over analyzing your life.
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 – JUST DO IT!
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!
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.”
Does anything else need to be said?
God has already worked it out for you. It may not come the way you think it should come (or when you think it should), but remember – CALM DOWN, SHUT UP, AND QUIT TRIPPIN’! He’s working it out for “YOUR” good (in His time).
Do not ask the Lord to guide your footsteps, if you are not willing to move your feet.
Be Blessed!!!
Until next time.
Amen!
