Agitated

Do not be agitated - it can only lead to harm. Psalm 37:8b

Anxious, fret, worry, and agitated are all words with similar meaning and negative outcomes. 

God keeps in peace, those whose minds are set on Him (Isaiah 26:3).

To have the mindset that one’s primary goal is to “control the situation” or “fix the problem”, is like thinking that you might somehow stem the ebb and flow of the ocean’s tide.

Abide, be in, deeply and personally, your relationship with the Prince of Peace. As you do, you might find the receding tides are a perfect time for picking up sea glass and shells, and the crashing waves are the most fun when you’re riding on top of a boogie-board.

A tranquil heart is possible in and through the presence of God. Is your focus the problem or the solution? One is of God, the other is not.
