"I want you to get out there and
walk—better yet, run!—on the road God called you to travel. I don’t want

humility and discipline—not in fits and starts, but steadily, pouring
yourselves out for each other in acts of love, alert at noticing
differences and quick at mending fences." Eph 4:1-2 (MSG)

Because I worry about my kids, my family, me, friends, etc. But I’m in the Bible every single day. I am a Jesus girl. So for me to worry and then see that my worry means I don’t trust that God can handle it is hard. UGH. I am getting better about it though. My time with God every morning is helping. When I start to worry about something…I begin to pray. I stop the tormenting in it...
