What Women Fear

To truly believe with everything in me as the Bible says, that death is sweeter than life, would revolutionize the way I live & love.  It would constantly remind me that the worst isnt as bad as it seems because He is on the other side of it.

What Women Fear

At its core, it is the recognition that I do not have control of life.  God Himself knows my last day on this earth & how it is that I will be brought to Him.  It isn't for me to know.  As with so many other fears, this struggle is in the acknowledgement that no matter how long I spend worrying about it, I won't be any closer to an answer.

Mondays with my Old Pastor

Simply live with God.  The rest will happen by itself & that will take care of all your worries.  Why should I worry?  It's not my responsibility to think about myself.  My responsibility is to think about God.  It's God's responsibility to think about me.

Worry/Stress - Crazy Love - Francis Chan

WORRY implies that we dont quite trust that God is big enough, powerful enough, or loving enough to take care of what's happening in our lives.

STRESS says that the things we are involved in are important enough to merit our impatience, our lack of grace towards others, or our tight grip of control. 

Basically, these 2 behaviors communicate that its OK to sin & not trust God because the stuff in my life is somehow exceptional.
