Do your part and leave room for God to handle the rest. You don't have to carry the pressure of making everything work out.

Some things are simply beyond your control. Instead of letting them steal your peace, give them to God and focus on what you can do today.

You don't need to have everything under control to have peace. Sometimes peace comes from knowing when to let go.

God says today,

“Don’t let the stress of today steal your peace. Do what you can, and let Me do what you can’t.”

Inspired from — Psalm 46:10

You cannot repent on your own. God has to repent you. In other words, God must bring you to repentance. He works repentance in you.

You cannot have faith (trust) in God on your own. God has to create faith in you. God the Holy Spirit does so by His Word.

His preached Word, His written Word, and the visible Word—Baptism. The Lord’s Supper, too, is God’s visible Word whereby He sustains the gift of faith (trust) that He created in you.

You get zero credit for repentance.
You get zero credit for faith.

Repentance is not 99% God and 1% you.

Saving faith is not mere mental assent to the facts.

Saving faith is not reflective faith, where you simply think deeply about the facts of the faith.

Saving faith is a gift God delivers to you whereby you lay hold of His promises; His promise to forgive sins and to sustain your trust in Him.

Salvation is God’s work alone. A salvation He delivers through physical means, through men called by the Church to preach the Word and administer the Sacraments.
