When your heart is troubled,

…remember that God is still in control.

…be reassured that not everyday will be this hard.

…double up on prayer.

…take a nap. Or two.

…paint a room.

…take a nature walk.

…find comfort that Jesus knows your pain.

…realize that life isn’t always fair.

…spend time with a child.

…rock away on your front porch swing.

…remember that patience is worth waiting for.

…pray for those you love.

…trust that God is working behind the scenes.

…spend time with the elderly.

…invite a friend over for coffee.

…count your blessings.

…cry. It’s really okay to cry.

…pray for your enemies.

…read the Bible.

…pet your dog. Or, someone else’s.

…hug someone.

…ask God for understanding.

…write a poem.

…continue to dream.

…don’t lose hope.

…make a fruit pizza.

…ask God for a little more patience.

…sail the seven seas.

…pick some wildflowers.

…realize you may never have the answer.

…watch the sunset.

…tell someone you love them.

Be grateful this day, even with all its challenges.♥️
