What are you currently struggling or grappling with in your life?
This was one of my life lessons last week... Recipe for a happy life: Training yourself to live in the present without regretting the past or fearing the future.
The questions are a mile long, and sometimes fear comes along with it. However, I know we shouldn't be fearful because the one who saved us from our sins is the same one who loves us unconditionally and will never give us more than we can handle. That doesn't stop my worries, though. In everything, we should pray. And yes, I struggle with this because I like to be in control. I like to know what lies ahead, and y'all, life isn't always in our control. But, once we give it to Him, it's amazing the weight that is lifted off our shoulders. How wonderful it is to know that our future is nothing to worry about, and that we should always live our life in the present, because tomorrow, today will be in the past.

It's so hard not to worry about stuff. I have worked on this very diligently over the past two years, to be present and not borrow worry or anxiety or fear from things I can't control anyway.
ReplyDeleteI constantly worry about things I can not control. Great post! Love you!
ReplyDeletePRAY MORE, WORRY LESS. This is on a post-it that is on my computer in my office as a constant reminder. I don't know many people that DON'T struggle with control!
ReplyDeleteI struggle with worrying about the future too much as well (and being a control freak). God's teaching me how to let go of a lot and to trust Him but it's a daily practice! I have to be diligent or my controlling worry filled ways creep up on me.
ReplyDeleteOh, as I read this post I was nodding my head and saying amen amen! This hits home with me because I do a lot of worrying myself, which in turn only causes stress and anxiety that is totally not needed. Love you, friend! I am so thankful you were so honest to share your heart with us today!
ReplyDeleteI am a worrier too. Someone once told me though, that giving all my worries to Him is still in control. I am choosing to pass it off, and He will take care of it. Still a little different in my head, but it makes since! It's a daily struggle for me!
ReplyDeleteI was just talking about this with the husband - I worry way too much on occasion and it does nothing but give me stress. What a much needed reminder to give it all to Him!
ReplyDeleteFound you via Coffee & Conversation link up today, and I wrote on the exact same thing! So Glad I am not alone, but I totally identify. This is definitely something I am working on myself right now!
ReplyDeleteJust live your life, girl! God has it under control and he's perfect at what he does.
ReplyDeletebeautifully written friend! thanks for sharing!
