GOD'S PROMISES - STAY IN PEACE

When we are praying about a difficult situation that we are going through, of course we want the end result to work out in our favor. As we all know, sometimes things do not work out the way that we want or plan.

While you are praying about a situation you are facing, ask God to help you stay in peace no matter what the outcome of the situation is. 

Maybe you are covering for someone who is out of the office. There are certain aspects of that persons job that you really do not like dealing with. You may be praying and asking God to let those specific job duties not occur until the employee you are covering for returns back to the office. 

While it would be great if you prayer comes true and you don't have to face those duties, also pray and ask God to help you deal with those duties effectively and efficiently if they do arise during that timeframe.

This will allow you to stay in peace because in the end you know that God will help you no matter what the outcome of this situation is.
