1 00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:04,880 We don't have to know the answers to all of our questions 2 00:00:05,280 --> 00:00:10,720 to find meaning and fulfillment. We only have to trust that there 3 00:00:10,720 --> 00:00:15,800 is an answer. We trust that God knows what we 4 00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:20,240 do not and that He has our best interest at heart. 5 00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:26,800 We just simply trust that God's loving hand is at work in our 6 00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:31,360 life. Let that sit with you as you go 7 00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:37,000 about your day. Go ahead and get comfortable in 8 00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:43,280 your position, really allowing the body to relax. 9 00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:53,040 And when you feel ready, let your eyes slowly close. 10 00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:01,840 Now take a moment to consider this verse. 11 00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:10,360 I am with you, and I will protect you everywhere you go. 12 00:01:18,110 --> 00:01:27,790 Again, I am with you and I will protect you everywhere you go. 13 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:48,240 Bring your attention to any emotions you're carrying with 14 00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:59,250 you. Not engaging with your feelings, 15 00:02:01,050 --> 00:02:13,120 just noticing them. Almost like you're observing 16 00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:17,520 your emotions and then letting them go. 17 00:02:22,640 --> 00:02:28,200 Just like loosening your grip, you're letting go of those 18 00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:45,390 feelings. Let God handle whatever is out 19 00:02:45,390 --> 00:02:58,030 of your control. This is a place of acceptance 20 00:02:58,950 --> 00:03:06,910 and safety. You can always find rest in God. 21 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:19,640 Now begin to notice how your body feels. 22 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:31,400 When it feels comfortable, begin to consciously relax the body, 23 00:03:38,210 --> 00:03:42,170 scanning down from your head to your toes. 24 00:03:43,570 --> 00:03:47,370 Release any areas of tension in the body. 25 00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:06,200 Surrender all of your stress and all of your responsibilities and 26 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:24,200 just let your mind rest. You are safe. 27 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:45,800 God is looking out for you. Now bring your attention to your 28 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:55,130 breath. Just a soft, easy awareness. 29 00:05:03,820 --> 00:05:10,500 Notice what it feels like as air passes in through the nose and 30 00:05:10,500 --> 00:05:27,760 then back out through the mouth. Let the breath bring life to 31 00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:44,930 your body. Begin to listen to the sound of 32 00:05:44,930 --> 00:05:56,830 your breath, listening to the inhale and the exhale. 33 00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:17,320 On the next exhale, allow the breath to relax and become 34 00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:42,280 natural. Allow your breath to bring 35 00:06:42,280 --> 00:06:53,390 renewal to your body. You're making space to notice 36 00:06:53,390 --> 00:07:10,100 God's presence in your life. When it feels comfortable, bring 37 00:07:10,140 --> 00:07:25,160 your attention to the heartbeat. Allow that rhythm and stillness 38 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:27,720 to enter every part of your body. 39 00:07:45,670 --> 00:07:49,390 Feel the presence of God in this space. 40 00:07:53,950 --> 00:07:58,670 Let go of control and rest into the arms of God. 41 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:20,400 Take this verse with you. I am with you and I will protect 42 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:38,539 you everywhere you go. Softly begin to bring your 43 00:08:38,539 --> 00:08:45,260 awareness back to the body, back to that feeling of weight in the 44 00:08:45,260 --> 00:08:49,900 body. And when you're ready, slowly 45 00:08:49,900 --> 00:08:54,600 open your eyes and take a big deep breath in. 46 00:08:55,800 --> 00:09:00,760 Take a moment to check in and notice how you feel. 47 00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:04,160 I hope you feel a little more present. 48 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:09,600 We'll see you again tomorrow for another day of hope. 49 00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:11,640 Take care.
