II Corinthians 4:5-7
"For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus' sake. For God, Who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us."

"God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble." Psalm 46:1
I am going to let you in on a little secret. As you are about to start your day, or go forth from the present moment, stretch your right hand forward slightly and up as you speak these words, (or your own which carry the same meaning): "Lord Jesus, please take my hand and lead me throughout this entire day. I want You to be my Guide and Counselor; I want You in full charge and I won't do even any backseat driving...."
...Those words will do you no good unless there is something more behind them than the air pressure which gave them utterance. And, merely uttering them in the morning and then letting them be forgotten throughout the rest of the day will neither do the trick. They must be lived. Time and again come back to the same thought: "Lord, You lead the way." And often, throughout the day, especially in moments of uncertainty, perplexity, concern or when conditions are prone to grieve you, speak out these words: "My Blessed Lord is here and all is well." Never say that God is near, but always say "God is here." Practice incessantly getting into the consciousness of God's actual Presence in your life; not merely a hoped-for Presence when you are in deep prayer, or when you are in church; but also when you are washing the dishes, or driving to work or buying the groceries: whatever the place or the circumstance, perpetually come back to the thought, as well as the audibly spoken words (if the situation permits): "God is here; my Blessed Lord leads the way, and all is well."
