DID YOU KNOW?
Jesus is going to fix what you’ve been worrying about.
Some worries have been sitting beside you so long they almost feel like part of the furniture—like the old chair by the window where you’ve prayed for children, marriages, health reports, and bills. Many women in the Boomer generation know what it is to carry a family in prayer while keeping supper warm, showing up faithfully at church, and holding everyone else together. But Jesus never asked you to carry tomorrow by yourself.
His invitation is tender and direct: “Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you” (1 Peter 5:7, NIV). Not because your concerns are small, but because His love is large. What has kept you awake at 3 a.m. has not slipped past the Lord. He sees the wayward child, the strained relationship, the uncertain diagnosis, the tight budget, the lonely season, the prayer that seems delayed.
Jesus is not wringing His hands over what concerns you. He is already present in it. He is working in places you cannot yet see, softening hearts, opening doors, arranging timing, strengthening you for today, and preparing peace for tomorrow. Sometimes He fixes things by changing the situation. Sometimes He fixes them by changing us in the middle of it—steadying our hearts, renewing our hope, and reminding us that we are never abandoned.
So breathe again. Sit with Him a little longer. Let His words settle your spirit: “Be still, and know that I am God” (Psalm 46:10, NIV). The same Savior who has brought you through every previous season will be faithful in this one too. What you have been worrying about is not beyond His reach. Jesus is able, attentive, and already at work.
