Anxious and Freaked Out Dampened by the Rain
Madness and havoc are being experienced right now. Okay, maybe I am over-reacting a little, but I just hate it when there is a spin-off or a hiccup in my plans. Due to these little roadblocks, they are taking my time and effort to figure the best way to overcome it. (Yup, sure seems like I will not make a good contestant on “The Amazing Race.”)
Yesterday, I receive a rather unexpected call and it left me flustered and worried. It sure felt like a candy—that a baby has been waiting to take a bite out of it—was taken away and placed high up on the shelf. The situation was made even more difficult when the baby was not supposed to have any candy in the first place. The taker swooped in while mommy was in the same room just having her eyes diverted away for a split second. Man! What a situation it would be if mommy found out!
ARRGH!!! Now, it is time for the clean up. There is quite a lot of coordination and follow up just to solve the matter. There are so many possibilities of the good and the bad that might happen. My mind is exploding and please, don’t ask me what is going to happen in the next few weeks. Today or tomorrow itself seems like a long way to go.
A beam of sunshine warmed up the dark and scary place of my heart this morning as I was doing my reading. It goes…
“The future can be a scary place. The unknown can be overwhelming, especially when the known has so many struggles. That’s why we need to trust in what God has promised. No matter what situation [we] will face, [we] can depend on God’s promise of help—regardless of what trouble the world will be in. God said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you” (Heb. 13:5). And Jesus said, “I am with you always, even to the end of the age” (Matt. 28:20).
Those are great promises to depend on when we start to worry about the future.
We may not know what the future holds, but we can trust the One who holds the future.” —Dave Branon
That was assuring.
Hey, Suemae. Everything will work out for the best. Put your mind, your strength, and your heart to what really matters. Have faith and be obedient. There will be sunshine and rainbows after the thunderstorms.
