Today's entry from my flip calendar "Jesus Calling:  Enjoying Peace in His Presence" by Sarah Young:

"THANK ME FOR YOUR PROBLEMS.
As soon as your mind gets snagged
on a difficulty,
bring it to Me with thanksgiving.

Then ask Me to show you
My way to handle the situation.
The very act of thanking Me
releases your mind from its negative focus.
As you turn your attention to Me,
the problem fades in significance
and loses its power to trip you up.
Together we can deal with the situation,
either facing it head-on
or putting it aside for later consideration.

"Most of the situations that
entangle your mind
are not today's concerns;
you have borrowed them from tomorrow.
In this case, I lift the problem out of today
and deposit it in the future,
where it is veiled from your eyes.
In its place I give you My Peace,
which flows freely from My Presence."

~ Taken from Philippians 4:6; John 14:27

Scribbled in the margins of my Bible(near Acts 28) and shared with my Sunday School class yesterday. This is something taken from a television broadcast on May 18. 2012:

"Prayer is the transference of a burden.
Sheep (which Jesus calls us!) do not carry burdens.
If we pray we leave the burden there.
If we still have the burden,
all we have done is griped!"
