Honesty

I'm at work right now, but decided to whip out a quick, honest post. I've been struggling a lot lately with worry and stress. A lot of stressful things are going on right now that I have avoided posting about because I simply don't like to think about them. But the stress is getting a little overwhelming today. I woke up with my mind racing and my heart pounding, and it's been like that pretty much ever since. In the past 5 minutes I've even started feeling a little dizzy and light-headed from all the stress. I'm trying not to lose my cool in front of everybody at work, but I'm having a hard time today.

I guess I'm just writing this to vent a little bit, and say that I would be very thankful for prayer - I just need to know that God is in control and that I'm freaking out over nothing. And by worrying I'm not acknowledging his power.

Thanks for listening! I love my blog because I can admit things here that I can't even admit to the people closest to me. That's why I haven't told anyone I know about my blog. So thank you!

  1. I hope your day gets better, and that you feel the peace of God over our life. Remember, there are things that are useful to worry over, but most of the time, our worrying affects nothing.

  2. I get that way sometimes too. It's just part of our nature. Whenever stress seems to have a grip on me, I read Psalm 37. Praying peace for you in the midst of the storm. Blessings, SusanD

  3. I'll be praying for you. I know the feeling, sometimes I get so stressed out, and it's ususally over things that I can't do anything about - so it's silly, but I do it too!

  4. Jessica,
    Know that I will be lifting you up in prayer today! Worrying is part of our human nature, even when we know and trust that God is in control, but I am praying that God's Peace will calm your fears and soothe your heart!
    Blessings,
    Stacey
