How to Walk through Worry Well By Jen Ferguson But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore, do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. – Matthew 6:33-34 I recently went through some old writings I had done when Craig was in the beginning stages of the return of his auto-immune disease. Reading through, I realized how timeless those words are, not because they are necessarily poignant, but because there always seems to be parts of life where there's literally nothing we can do but to embrace the situation we are in and live through it. Just over a year ago, I wrote: As I'm typing this, I'm sitting in a hard hospital chair while Craig recovers from a kidney biopsy. Medical machines beeping, nurses soft-soled shoes squeaking on the tile floor, the murmur of hushed voices. It's been a long stretch of days filled with unknowns. One morning this week, I thought about how long we're going to continue on this roller coaster of despair. The past summer was filled with the loss of loved ones. And the start of Craig's health issues. One thing after the other and my continual question seemed to be: When will we catch a break! |
