Finding Independence

“I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” John 16:33

Stress. It can become a daily burden. Adoption-related issues can add to our stress levels. But take heart, my struggling friend. It is your independence day!

While we celebrate our country’s independence to self-govern and worship in freedom, Jesus encourages us to give our struggle, that burden, to Him.

However, truly giving them to God, nailing them to the cross of Christ, can be a challenge beyond our human ability.

Laying our troubles at the bottom of His cross, takes a power beyond us. A supernatural strength only He can provide.

When we finally stop struggling with our burden is when God can step in and provide His peace.

Release this stress to Him. Claim your independence. He waiting to step in.

Happy Independence Day!
