Something Laney and I have really been struggling with lately is worry. Over analyzing things, and just plain worrying until it literally makes us feel sick. We've also been doing a lot of praying about it too, and really, prayer is the BEST thing EVER!! We're reminded of a verse from a hymn, "Oh what peace we often forfeit! Oh what needless pain we bear! All because we do not carry, everything to God in prayer!" And really so true! Every time after we've talked to God about the thing thats bothering us i may get a text saying "Bekah, I've handed it to God and i feel SO much better!" Or Laney might get a text saying, "Ive given my worries to Him and i already feel better!" Here are some of the good verses we found on worry!
Come unto me all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for i am meek and lowly in heart:
and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
For my yoke is easy, and my burdens light.
Matthew 11:28-30
"For my yoke is easy, and my burdens light!" *sighs* Oh what a mighty God we serve! Those verses are so very important to us right now, constantly reminding us we not only can give it to him, he WANTS us to give our burdens to him! So the next time you may be worrying about something try taking a deep breath, going somewhere quiet, and pouring your soul to the healer of souls! Another good thing to do is encourage some one who is worrying. We ask eachother daily how the other is, and pass around bible verses we've found that are helpful, and remind eachother to take it to God, and it makes the load so much easier to bear!Also, a friend of ours is always sending texts asking if you need prayer for anything, and this is such a good thing to do, letting some one know that if they're going through something you want to pray for them! An example we should follow! I hope if any of you are struggling with this as well you will try this!Its helped Laney and I so much! Have a blessed day!
