Living the Principle: “Be Still and Know That I Am God”
- Set aside five minutes each day to sit in quiet prayer or meditation, deliberately calming your mind and focusing on God’s presence.
- When worries surface, write them in a journal and then offer them to the Lord in prayer, consciously releasing control.
- Choose one scripture about peace or trust to memorize this week, and repeat it to yourself whenever anxiety starts to rise.
