Have you ever noticed how when things start to go wrong or become stressful, it seems like not just one thing starts going haywire, but multiple things? Why is that? Is it because everything really is spinning out of control, or is it because our stress level rises and makes everything seem worse than it really is? I suppose it really doesn't matter - regardless, things are crazy.
I feel like I'm buried under a heap of worries and cares. I keep giving them to God. I keep turning to Him in prayer and casting my burdens on Him, and I keep experiencing His peace. The stress always comes back, though. I know I invite it back by allowing worry in the back door. Father, forgive me and help me to leave it in Your hands.
All I can do is keep walking forward, keeping my eyes fixed on the Author and Perfecter of my faith. All I can do is trust that as I take each step, He is going to show me where to go next. All I can do is fall into His loving arms when I can't take another step and trust Him to carry me down the long road ahead.
