Last night was a rough one for me.  I had such an uneasy feeling that I couldn't shake.  I was so restless that I couldn't lay down and watching t.v didn't help either.  I still don't know why I felt this way.  I tried several different things and nothing helped.  I was going to call my friend but I didn't know what to say, I couldn't explain the way I was feeling.  Then, as a last resort, I picked up my bible.  I sat on the end of the couch reading the bible while dh rubbed my feet.  When I started reading, I found it.  The peace that the bible says "passes all understanding".  I read for a good while and then I was fine.  I went to bed at 2:45am.  I'm sure dh was glad to see me lay down.  Now, why is it that I go to God and the bible as a last resort?  I can go to Him for others but it hard to ask for myself.  I think last night I may have learned a big lesson I won't soon forget.

"Come unto me all ye that labour and are heavy laden and I will give you rest"

Wonderful lesson learned. I have personally taken the phrase "Praying is the least I can do" completely out of my vocabulary. Praying is the first thing that I should do; especially praying God's Word. Such power!!
I'm glad you found your peace from the only One who can truly and freely give it :)
