Sanity

Sanity

Dan. 4:34 ¶ At the end of that time, I, Nebuchadnezzar, raised my eyes toward heaven, and my sanity was restored. Then I praised the Most High; I honored and glorified him who lives forever. His dominion is an eternal dominion; his kingdom endures from generation to generation (NIV).

 Sanity is defined as the ability to think and behave in a normal and rational manner. To define sanity the need to define what is normal, because what the world calls normal is different than what normal means to God. God explains that the wisdom of this world is foolishness in His sight. So in order for you to be normal you need to come back to God. Come back to God and see what he sees. Come back to God is coming back to sanity, or keeping your sanity or maybe you just will discover sanity. This will lead you to God's will and see why it is good. It is time for you to make the call to Sanity because this world will drive you to insanity. God will drive you to Sanity!

The way to maintain, reclaim or attain your sanity is staying in prayer, being rooted in God's word and being filled with his Love. Listen to God through His word, Holy Spirit and how God speaks through other people. Listen to the call of God and let him keep you in perfect peace. Your sanity will depend on your prayer life as well. Staying in prayer will lead you to sanity and to the fullness of God. Praying is simply talking to God. Take the time to talk to God about your problems and regain your sanity by praying for God's strength, love, wisdom and peace. Isaiah 26:3-4 - Is. 26:3 You will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast, because he trusts in you. Is. 26:4 Trust in the LORD forever, for the LORD, the LORD, is the Rock eternal (niv).
