We certainly don't always understand why some things happen and it is easy to feel anxiety. I have to remind myself many times when anxiety attacks that I need to remember that God is in control and I need to keep reminding myself of that and ask God to help me trust Him more. <br />Blessings and prayers for you,<br />CharlotteCharlottehttp://char72.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3871591920192705501.post-2135689060433493782011-07-04T18:51:49.964-07:002011-07-04T18:51:49.964-07:00Thank you for sharing your heart.

You are so right, that if I focus on what God has been speaking I feel his calming presence and know the reality of his love for me. His word that I've hid in my heart does have power!<br />My latest struggle has been to trust that I am being a good mom and when I mess up with my adult kids that they will forgive me and not close themselves off from me. Rather than scrutinize their reactions or lack of response, I will be satisfied in the affection of my heavenly Father, first of all and receive family, or friends', kindnesses as gifts from him.<br />Thank you for the encouragement, today.Ruthnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3871591920192705501.post-85870688082070013152011-07-04T16:56:16.599-07:002011-07-04T16:56:16.599-07:00I am so sorry for all you are going through with y...I am so sorry for all you are going through with your son and pray this is a successful treatment. <br />I understand having to 'cast down imaginations' and experiencing the fear when we do not. My children are not ill but my two 20 year old sons have turned away from God for now and I experience these same emotions. <br />We cannot let ourselves go there and have to choose faith!<br />May God bless you during this time.Shandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14337476167174497223noreply@blogger.com
