Reflections: Bending Your Heart to Your Father
Reflections.
Bending Your Heart to Your Father, excerpts from A Praying Life: Connecting with God in a Distracting World, by Paul E. Miller.
Most of us simply want to get rid of anxiety. Some hunt for a magic pill that will relieve the stress. Others pursue therapy. While antidepressants and counseling have helped many people, the search for a "happy pill" or "happy thoughts" will not stop our restless anxiety. It runs too deep.
Instead of fighting anxiety, we can use it as a springboard to bending our hearts to God. Instead of trying to suppress anxiety, manage it, or smother it with pleasure, we can turn our anxiety toward God. When we do that , we'll discover that we've slipped into continuous praying.
When you stop trying to control your life and instead allow your anxities and problems to bring you to God in prayer, you shift from worry to watching. You watch God weave his patterns in the story of your life. Instead of trying to be out front, designing your life, you realize you are inside God's drama. As you wait, you begin to see him work, and your life begins to sparkle with wonder. You are learning to trust again.
