No matter what is thrown at me and no matter what seems to come my way, I always have two reactions. A) Freak out and stress out about it. or B) Take it to the Lord and let Him handle it. I hate to say it but option A seems to be the one that I always head to. Human nature, I guess. It stinks too. That feeling like you can't control anything and that one thing at any moment can come and tear everything down. I worry too much. WAY too much. I have been at that place where I've worried so much, I've made myself sick. But God's shown me something. Isaiah 40: 30-31 "But even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles, they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and never faint." If we wait. How cool is that?! That if we put our complete and total trust in God, He will make is so that we are so strong that nothing can wear us out. ...And He can handle everything thrown at us and will fight our battles for us... If I trust in HIM, He will work out whatever it is that's making me sick on my stomach because I'm such a human that my first instinct to worry instead of taking it to the Lord in prayer. Lord, please help me. I'm getting better and I probably won't have it figured out by the time I'm 70 but it's definitely a work in progress. :)
