    I received some upsetting news last night right before bed, and I winded up staying up all night worrying about it. I know the Lord has everything in control but I just can't stop worrying. I pray, then worry, pray, then worry, and then pray some more! Funny how I pray feel better, then a little later I find my self worrying about it again.
    Needless to say, we played hooky from school today :cry: Hubby called it a principal and teacher conference day! We were trying to make plans in case the worse should come to past. Please pray that the Lord have his way in this matter. I would really appreciate it.

    It's human nature (at least woman nature!) to worry, no matter how hard I try not to I still worry at times. Then God comes through like always and I feel guilty for not putting my trust in Him.
    I always find this verse in Philippians helps me:Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-7
    I'm really sorry you had upsetting news, I will keep you in my prayers, that the Lord will work this matter out for your family.

    Praying. I'm so much that way too!!!

    Hoping all goes in a way that glorifies Him, and encourages, uplifts and strengthens your faith in Him.
