 "For You make him to be blessed and a blessing forever; You make him exceedingly glad with joy of your presence." Psalm 21:6
It is a challenge to keep life's problems from stealing your joy. Pressure can squeeze peace right out of you. Don't just talk to yourself saying, "I just can't take anymore of this." Don't talk to your friends and say, "I just can't put up with anymore of this." Talk to the Lord. Talk back to the enemy and remind him of the promises of God. If your peace is stolen, then your joy goes with it. If you feel your peace and joy slipping away - stop, drop and pray. Ask the Lord to help you. Don't worry, be happy! Determine that you are going to do everything you can to keep your peace and enjoy your life.
