One of the blogs I read is by https://mypastoralponderings.com/ from Rev. James Lawrence. Today he was talking about our ability to keep on worrying in spite of god’s promises to us. I reminded me of a talk on that subject I gave as part of a series I did on healing. We tend to want to carry everything ourselves. Not just our worries but our failings, our guilts, our pains. We turn it over to God and then we pick it back up. Put it down, pick it up, put it down.

Every day we empty those things into the trash and then grab the bag and drag it behind us. We move on and drag the bag…on and on and on. Somehow we need to learn that when we turn it loose it is gone. Really gone. Forever gone. God can handle our fears and worries. We just have to trust and believe it.
