Troubled One

Dear Judy,

I have some huge overwhelming issues in my life. My mind will not shut up. How do I live in God’s peace through this turmoil? I love the Lord but need help in this storm!

Dear Troubled One,

The first and most positive thing is to make sure you have Jesus and His Word in your life. I call the Bible my manual for success because there is no solid help outside of the Lord and His promises. Everything we need is found in that Manual (Bible). Through your storms of life, you will find your peace in the promises of our Lord.

We must not always speak the problem but speak the promises of God. Right now, I am going through the biggest storm I have ever had to face, and I am standing on Matthew 19:26: But Jesus looked at them and said to them, "With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible." This scripture helps me bring my storm out of the natural realm and into the spiritual. If we view our problem from man’s perspective, then we have no peace! Peace of God comes from the spiritual realm, so we keep our eyes on Jesus!

The Apostle Paul faced a lot of big storms in his life, and he says in Romans 8:6, For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. Carnally minded means to think as the world thinks which will not bring us peace. Peace comes when we are spiritually minded which we get when we look up at Jesus and what He has done for us, is doing for us, and will do for us; then spend our time meditating on that!

Wondering

By Dr. Judy Baus • 01 Jan, 2023

Does it matter which Bible version is used? The New International Version is easier to read than the King James Version, but the Amplified Bible gives better descriptions. Thank you!

Dear Judy, I want to first say, Judy, I love the Lord! But I’m having trouble keeping out thoughts of despair as I watch the news every day. The shooting of innocent people coming out of nowhere. How to cope?

Add to not Take away!

By Dr. Judy Baus • 11 Dec, 2019

This is the first month in a New Year and I am sure we all made some declaration for this New Year which wholes new beginnings if we will allow them to be. Instead of giving up I always add something to my walk with the Lord and when I do that it seems to take care of what I should give up or change.
