Worrying Doesn’t Help (part 2)
At the end of May, I wrote a post titled “Worrying Doesn’t Help” where I shared my tendency to worry about a particular situation I have been facing. In my post, I concluded,
“…my God is faithful. When this is all over, I don’t want to look back and say, ‘Why didn’t I trust God? He was taking care of me the whole time.’ Instead, I want to be able to look back and say, ‘I trusted and praised God during that time when I didn’t know what was going to happen.'”
Since then, I’ve spent a lot of time at appointments, on the phone, filling out paperwork, working through some intense dislikes, facing fears, and it hasn’t been fun. However, I have continued to concentrate on God’s greatness and not my situation. I’ve been prayerful and hopeful and three months later, I want to report for God’s glory, that He was indeed watching out for me during that time. What I couldn’t see, He understood perfectly. Things I thought were negative and discouraging were actually just parts of the situation that had to take place in order to “get to the good part.” To be honest, I knew God would take care of things, but I didn’t know how amazingly He would work it out. Thank you, God, for being so good to me!
