Hi Terrym79,
There is a Christian preacher/teacher named Joyce Meyer. She has helped me so much in the past year to just "enjoy everyday life", which is the name of her TV and radio program. I used to read very intense spiritual writers (Spurgeon, Tozer, and, my favorite, Andrew Murray) but I have found lately that I need "down to earth" teaching to keep me grounded. I especially like the way she teaches on 1 Peter 5:7 (which Elizabeth quotes above.) Joyce says, "Say ALL, Casting ALL your care, ALL your anxies, say ALL, ONCE AND FOR ALL ..." That emphasis really worked for me. (Sometimes it is easy to skim over the very words that we need to concentrate on the most.)
I will definitely pray for you. I know God hears even the faintest whisper when we cry out to him:)

I agree with you about Joyce Meyer. I was having a real bad day and I was surfing the radio dial and came across a bunch of people laughing hysterically. I left it on. By the end of the show I was laughing so hard, I completely forgot why I was down. It was one of Joyce's messages. I've listened to her ever since.

Each person breathing is given a measured amount of Faith.......Basically God isn't going to allow you to go through more than you can handle......He has given you thee Faith you need to get through. The bible faith comes by hearing and hearing the word of God.....So know that Faith is ready when you are......

Blessings....
