It's an ugly state of mind, this sense of being overwhelmed. Common sense tells me I'm not overwhelmed at all. My world has shrunk considerably, not much is asked of me, I have stellar help and support. So what's the big deal? Yet there it is, that unwelcome thought that I can't do this.
As a result, my verses today will be:
"So then, do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Today has enough troubles of its own."-Matthew 6:34 (NET).
and
"I am able to do all things through The One Who strengthens me."-Philippians 4:13 (NET).
On the health front:
Garden variety cold, still irritating skin rash, excessive fatigue, but other than that, all is well.
Hi Barb,
ReplyDeleteToday we did a study on Psalm 42 and I was blown away. It showed me we Christians as was David, close to God, can and will be overwhelmed by life and feel totally drowning in a sea of circumstances. Our soul longs for God at that time but yet He seems far away. We prayed for you today and every day.
Love you lots,
Marge
So true, Marge....so true! And thank you once again for your faithful prayers.

Hi Barbara,
ReplyDeleteHow are you? I've been thinking about and praying for you. :)
