Trust Issues

I can't speak for anyone else, but I have a condition.  You see, my condition involves my overthinking, which causes my mind take the simple to outlandish extremes.  For example, let's say I am thirsty...I get a bottle of water, drink about half, then start running through my schedule for the day.  As I am running through my schedule, I imagine the length of time it takes me to drive to each place and trying to figure how long I will have before my medication makes my body insist on letting the water leave.  Therefore, without having actually moved an inch, I have already gone to an extreme.  I am getting a little better about not overthinking as much, but it still happens from time to time.

But when we focus on God, remembering that He has everything under control and there is nothing that will EVER surprise Him, we can rest in the knowledge that He's got us.  With that level of comfort comes peace in the knowledge that we don't have to worry or stress or be anxious about anything because we can give it to Him and He will accept it.

But you see, we have the habit of giving God everything that is bothering us...except we don't want to trust Him to deal with it so we take it back and then wonder why we are still stressed, depressed and anxious after we have prayed.  Well, it's because we aren't allowing God to do His job!  Think about that.
