So let\\u2019s jump right in with today\\u2019s nugget:
Today\\u2019s quote is from George Matthew Adams, and it is: A cheerful frame of mind, reinforced by relaxation...is the medicine that puts all ghosts of fear on the run.
A Cheerful Mind
Why do we find today so many people who are anxious and fearful? Ultimately all unfounded fear or anxiety is due to a lack of faith that God has everything under His control. As a Christ-follower, we should be filled with joy and, in most situations, be able to have a cheerful mindset. When we can rest in God\\u2019s protection and provision, it reinforces our faith that God is in control. It is essential to reinforce our mindset with God\\u2019s precepts found in His Word to relax in the truths that we have no reason to be anxious or fearful. A joyful spirit produces a cheerful mind. It will act like medicine to help you relax about the issues that are causing anxiety and fear. When you can relax and be joyful, even during those times that may cause you to fear, you will soon understand that the fear fades away, and you are no longer anxious. Anxiety and fear will become a ghost and quickly fade away from your mind. I understand that each of us has weaknesses where we allow fear and anxiety to seize hold of us, and our faith may falter. God understands this also. While I have not counted them personally, I have read many times that there are 365 verses in God\\u2019s Word to overcome and conquer fear. That is one for each day of the year. So, do not fear or be anxious. Instead, cultivate a joyful and cheerful mind, and reinforce it daily so that you can relax in God\\u2019s provision and strength. Draw on that strength.

A cheerful heart is good medicine,
but a broken spirit saps a person\\u2019s strength.
