Baby, Relax!

I’m no saint so I can’t brag about my love for God but I can definitely brag about His love for me. God truly sees our thoughts and knows our needs even before we ask. He knows exactly what we need and how to give it to us. I think and worry too much maybe even more than the people I know and what result do I get? None. I only end up making the situation worse than it was already. You know, I feel like God calls me baby because I can hear it clearly when I feel He’s  telling me to relax because He’s got me.

To know the extent of how much I over think, let me give you an example. I’m the kind of person that might want to visit someone and be planning my responses mentally. Planning how to seat, whether or not to eat and many minute arrangements in my head that eventually doesn’t go as planned. Even after I take my leave, I analyze my actions there wondering if I said the wrong or right thing. But this voice in my head keeps saying “baby, relax”.

There are lots of times when I need something maybe not life threatening like food, money, perfume etc and God will just provide out of the blues, I mean doesn’t He own the blues? I remember going to school for plenty registration and knowing that the staff there were naturally aggressive, slow and time wasting, you can queue for hours and the staff will end up walking out on everyone at the slightest provocation which means time and energy has been wasted and no result to show for it. I remembered this and it was a cause for concern so I told God to please make it stress free for me. That day, I didn’t spend up to five minutes for something that would have taken hours.

This God listens. If He can do little things, He can definitely do big things. He reminds me of promises I don’t keep and I make amends as soon as I can. Just yesterday, I was analyzing my income and all the expenses I have. You know how a lot of people think you’re enjoying because you seem to look fresh and you don’t talk about your problems, that’s what I’m talking about. After thinking back and forth, I told myself “Aanu, you worry too much” and I heard again “Baby relax, I got you”.

I know that you have problems and you wish you could wake up one day and they’ll be gone. Sometimes you feel that if suicide had no consequence, you’d have committed it long ago. Some of us don’t even know what we’re living for, we’re just there. I can’t make your situation better right now but all I know is that if you believe that God exists, he hears and knows your heart desires. He’s telling you to relax. Stop thinking for a moment. Eat something nice and try to look good. Sleep well. Just relax but don’t stop there. Keep trying your best. Put in your best efforts and leave him to it. He’s got you bigtime. 

You’re his responsibility and he’s a good father who wouldn’t turn a blind eye to his children even the most prodigal of them all. He can cause your enemies to bless you and give you your heart desires so just chill man. Don’t think that you’ve sinned so much that He doesn’t care about you anymore, He definitely does care and he’s working on you gradually to give you that expected end. Why not relax? What would you rather do anyway?
