Deadly Silence

How often do we keep our haunted thoughts just to ourself? We go around and around how we could have said something different, or not said anything at all, and we replay scenarios over and over again. I find myself asking questions over and over again. Did they take that the wrong way? What do they think of me? Did I ruin a perfectly good conversation? Or lose a friend? When we keep it all hidden in our hearts it only goes to destroy our thought life, and in turn how we respond to the world around us, our kids, our spouse, our friends... Wouldn't it be easier if we just brought all those fears, and all of those questions to God? We might be surprised at the answers. We might find all the no's in our head, to actually be yes's to God. I have heard that 90% of our worries are not even possibilities, and yet, we continue to worry. So, go ahead, don't be afraid, ask away, and be comforted, because you really are amazing, and you don't have to measure up to anyone...and God loves you just the way you are.

  1. That is great AJ. We all need to hear that--and God does love us just the way we are (even if it is hard to believe sometimes!)
