If you know me, you know one of the main messages God has put on my heart is the need to abide in Jesus. One of the reasons, I believe we get burned out, stressed out, overwhelmed by fear and anxiety stems from a lack of abiding in Jesus. Consider this... John 15:5 I Am the vine, you are the branches, the one who remains in ME, and I in him, bears much fruit, for apart from Me you can do nothing. It doesn't get much plainer than that.

"This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it; for then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will achieve success." -Joshua 1:8 How often are we to meditate on God's Word? Day and night. God's Word should be the first thing we are thinking about when we wake up and the last thing we are thinking about when we go to bed.
