“Blessed And Unbothered”

Philippians 4:4-9

Unbothered is defined as not experiencing mental or physical discomfort; carefree; unconcerned; calm; secure. 

It might feel overwhelming on some days, but it is possible to still choose joy, remain calm and be at peace even when it seems like everyone around us seem to be losing. God is ever present and faithful to give us the peace we need to be unbothered. In the midst of great chaos and lack of faith, Christ demonstrates the ability to be unbothered or unfazed by the disarray within His disciples. And the same day, when the even was come, he saith unto them, Let us pass over unto the other side.And when they had sent away the multitude, they took him even as he was in the ship. And there were also with him other little ships. And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship, so that it was now full. And he was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on a pillow: and they awake him, and say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we perish? And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm. And he said unto them, Why are ye so fearful? how is it that ye have no faith? And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, What manner of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?

I come by tonight to let you know we will no longer allow the enemy to keep us from what God has for us. We choose to be blessed and unbothered by everything in this world that is not of God. I pray that we will be able to stand on God’s word and remain unbothered. Unbothered meaning that even though it hurts, we keep going; even though it sucks we keep pressing, even though it is depressing we can still find joy in the Lord. Be blessed and I love you!!! JE
