Forget Not All His Benefits

My goodness, I can be so forgetful. I easily get caught up in my worries, fears, and longings that my mind goes in a downhill spiral fast. I am suddenly filled with fear and anxiety. My joy is gone and I forget the goodness of God.  I must pause and remember. I must pause and reflect. I must pause and contemplate the goodness of God. It takes a conscious effort and mental discipline. But wow, when I do...my joy is found. Have my circumstances changed? Nope. But I remember the goodness of God and then I remember He is with me and that can change everything.  If you can relate, I pray you are encouraged during this episode. And I pray you take a moment to pause and remember His goodness. I pray that moment turns into many moments. And I pray it changes your life.
