Jul. 28, 2006 - Stress, Stress, Stress
Why is it that we allow ourselves to worry. The Lord commands us not to. So why do some of us find it so difficult to not worry. Things have definately not gone as I have planned in regards to closing on our new home. We originally asked for a closing date of July 17, then the 24, then we were told probably the 25, then definately by today the 28, and now today, there are problems and we may not close till the 31, if we close at all. Pray that we will be okay with whatever the Lord decides for us. We just put everything into this house financially right now, so we are in dire straits if this is not what the Lord wanted for us. Pray that the stress levels would lower as the heat has not and we are all tensed up, because we need to be out of this apartment no later than Monday the 31. I still have to clean both places and cannot move our stuff into it before we have to be out at this point. I know that I am probably not staying focused as I tend to ramble on and on. I guess I am just using this as a way of venting, and hoping and praying that I will be able to maintain a calmness, so that I do not rant on any of my children, who don't have any idea of the kind of stress that my husband and I have acknowledged as ours. I guess we really need to let go of it and truly give it to God. He can handle it of that I am sure. Its just that in that place of uncertainty, I have a hard time giving him the "CRUD" that I feel like I should be concerned over. I realized logically, that there is no point in mulling over it as, my mulling isn't changing anything, and there is absolutely nothing in my control that I can do that I haven't already done. So instead of more ranting I think I will go sing praises to my Lord, and put my focus on Him which is right where it should have been in the first place. Off to go singing. Hope y'all have a GREAT day! I intend to make mine the best that it can.
