Well I can't help but feeling a little disappointed at yesterday's weight loss....I am only human after all...but in the grand scheme of things I realise its only small fry. I do try not to worry about small fry or battles already lost. I say I *do* try...though that's difficult when you're a worry-wart by nature and you come from a loooooong line of worry-warts. The reason I'm trying not to worry is that I realised I should be putting my cares, worries and anxieties onto God.
You see I was browsing the bible the other night...as you doo...and I thought "I wonder what the bible has to say about worry". And I went digging and found these 2 snippets...
Cast your cares on the LORD and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous fall. (Psalm 55:22)
Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. (1 Peter 5:7)
So, I'm trying to do what the bible suggests. Its early days but surprisingly I feel more care-free already :) Although funnily enough I've not worried much about Andy's job situation since right back in the early days. I just always knew from then that God has the most amazing plan for Andy and that it will happen on HIS time-scale. I firmly believe that and it gives me comfort knowing that.
Well - better go I have a ton of emails to get through - have a lovely day folks.

I LOVE Psalm 55:22...hard to do sometimes..but SO TRUE!
Well like I said we are only human...I guess the good thing is that we do try. I'm reading a book on faith and worry that my sister lent me...its really good.
