The car slowly pulled in the driveway. I blinked open my weary eyes. Home again. Yes, Anna you're back...and you've got things to do, your violin audition, the State Fair Dog Show, your youth drama audition, and don't forget...SCHOOL IS STARTING SOON. I fell back into oblivion and prayed for Jesus to help me. Instantly, a wave of peace calmed by worried heart and I got out of the car and approached the door, ready to tackle life again.
Why do we worry? Will doing so add another hour to our lives? Of course it does, we say. It makes things go a whole lot faster! Because of our sinful nature, we do everything we can (in our limited power) to make our worries go away. We play video games. We play outside. We listen to music. We even do chores. Every anti-worry pastime we embark on is temporary. Casting our cares on the Lord is permanent, but it requires that we humble ourselves. This is something at which I fail at and continue to fail at until I receive God's help. By God's grace I have made it through the week following Worthy without dying. Thank You Lord!!!
Oh, and I also drove home from driving class yesterday...without dying. Thank You Lord!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
