I've been thinking. And praying. And reading. . . I saw this quote a while back and it really caught my eye, and my heart and brain. "Lord, if it's not Your will, . . . give me the peace not to worry about it." Anyone else worry sometimes? Maybe you worry about what others think. Or you worry whether if something will go well or not. Perhaps you can't decide how to resolve an issue and begin to worry about that. Or maybe you worry about something entirely different. Sometimes peace seems to take a while to show up. I can't tell you that everything will go just as you planned-- in fact, it probably won't. But I can tell you God is here. With you. Listening to you. Tell Him your worries and concerns. He cared about you. Give Him the heavy burden of Worry and allow Him to show you His plan. Wait with Him. Stay close to God while you wait. Grow closer. Closer. When you start to worry, ask God immediately to help. I'm not an expert, I know I still worry too. But I know He's there. I know I want to keep learning. I want to keep getting closer to the Lord who created me and loved me when I didn't love Him back. I want to be close to God. Closer than a fly squished on a wall (sorry if you think that's gross). What has God been teaching you? Keep Smiling Every Day, Marie :) {Never Miss a Post! Click here to subscribe and get my posts in your inbox!}

I am so worried about this moment. So worried thatI can't think about Passover and the ressurection of Jesus Christ. Writing this I feel so sad. I will stop with worrying, you know. Worrying means you suffer twice.
