Are you a worrier...or a warrior?
Recently…our CrossPointe group at work met and praised God for His mighty hand of bringing one of our posse through breast cancer. At the end of our time together we did a prayer walk around our building, speaking Jesus’ health, healing, and salvation to those who pass through our doors…yeah…pretty cool stuff.
However, getting back to our workmate, who just came through monumental surgery with clean margins and no need for radiation or chemo…
The day before her surgery a bunch of us gathered to pray for her. This beautiful lady had encouraged us so much with her radiant peace and joy…as she expressed…that had only come from giving her life to Jesus just a couple of years ago. Then, she said the funniest thing…
“I come from a long line of worriers. No…not warriors…but worriers.”
We all laughed…nevertheless…the Spirit was speaking…
"Blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD…
For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters, which spreads out its roots by the river, And will not fear when heat comes… And will not be anxious in the year of drought, nor will cease from yielding fruit.”
Jeremiah 17:7-8
So…I’m simply asking…as you read this, which camp do you fall into? A worrier? Or, are you a warrior? Need to jump ship and swim to the other side? What are you waiting for…
(Read all of Jeremiah 17:5-18…it will knock your socks off!)
