Dealing with Stress

Through the stressful few days that I recently had, I was reminded of Gods grace and His blessings on my life. The song below clearly words the prayer which I have in my heart.

All that I am, all that I have
I lay them down before You O Lord
All my regrets, all my acclaim
The joy and the pain, I'm making them Yours

Lord I offer my life to You
Everything I've been through
Use it for Your glory
Lord I offer my days to You
Lifting my praise to You
As a pleasing sacrifice
Lord I offer You my life

Things in the past, things yet unseen
Wishes and dreams that are yet to come true
All of my hopes, all of my plans
My heart and my hands are lifted to You

My future in the coming months and years is unknown. I will be stepping into unfamiliar territory, having to pave my own path. New country, new culture, new everything. In Malaysia, I know what people are like, I know where I am and know what to expect. I dont like uncertainty.

But one thing I do know is that I can trust in God to guide my ways, to guide my days. Who else knows what tomorrow brings?

I chanced across this verse before this crazy week and I felt like it was meant for me even though at that time I did not know how much frustration I would have within myself this week so I kept it in mind. Sharing it here now on this blog.

Isaiah 26:3 - You will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast, because He trusts in You.

Do keep this verse in mind for yourself, in any stressful situation.
