Hi everyone welcome to some time to be still and be loved. So take some time

wherever you are to push away from the distraction, maybe find a quiet place anywhere you can find it.

Begin to breathe deeply in through your mouth and out through your mouth.

And out through your mouth.

And in through your nose and out through your nose.

And out through your nose.

Continue to breathe in that relaxed pattern but very full. You want full breath. You can be laying down or seated and just begin to find out if there are any tight restricted places in your body.

Places that you might be holding fear, anxiety, worry, stress, and with every breath, let it be a washing away.

One breath at a time, decontaminating yourself and washing yourself in the presence of his love. He sees you, he knows you. And he's not anxious about anything.

Continue to breathe in a way that makes a withdrawal on these promises that he sees you, he knows you, and he's not anxious about anything. See if you can relax your jaw and the creases between your eyes.

The way to relax your jaw and the creases between your eyes, the weight of your shoulders.

Relax your fists, your palms.

and we purposely kind of scan the body here

so that you're aware that you can direct your body into a state of peace.

But it takes attention, deliberate care, a deliberate desire to stay free.

Romans 8 37 to 39.

No, despite all these things,

overwhelming victory is ours through Christ who loved us. So whatever it is that is threatening your peace is coming against your identity, your inheritance, your promises.

We speak this word as you breathe it in. No, despite all these things. Overwhelming victory is

ours through Christ who loved us.

This is the word of the Lord.

These are not pithy sentimental statements by a god who is wishy-washy.
