We all have worries, serious worries about our children, relationships, day to day living, our health, the future... Life is hard.
Use the worry, I say, (which is connected to the intuition), to pray. If the worry indicator is high, up the prayers. If its lower, up the praise.
Bringing our worry before the Almighty God, is the only way I know to down it. Worry, pray, wait, trust. Short, simple, words. Difficult, short,simple,words.
Impossible. No.
Everything is possible with God. He takes the unbearable and makes it bearable. He takes the worry and fashions something beautiful out of it. He takes our prayer and sends a helping Hand.
Everybody pray now...
Everybody pray now!
Come on, sing with me!
" Don't worry about anything;
instead, pray about everything.
Tell God what you need,
and thank Him for all He has done.
If you do this, you will experiance God's peace,
which is far more wonderful than the human mind can understand.
His peace will guard your hearts and minds
as you live in Christ Jesus."
philippians 4: 6,7
(p.s. tell your mother, too)

I really struggle with this sometimes. Just want so much to be self-reliant that it's hard to release it and say "Lord, here, YOU deal with this!" I think it would be easier if I could feel like a partnership, where my actions and His guidance worked hand in hand. I know this is essentially how it goes, but often I feel powerless.
Great post, Henny, now to let the gray matter soak up your grains of wisdom... ;-)
ah, sometimes it sucks big time to be an independent, self-sufficient mama. so hard to submit, even when we really want to, to God and to hubby.
