Yesterday's weather forecast for today called for mixed precipitation: rain, freezing rain, snow...
Don't plan on going out, my husband cautioned... The roads might be slippery...
I had planned on getting a few groceries, but I really didn't need to go out... There was food in the freezer... I mentally prepared myself for a day indoors, cleaning and quilting.
Well, today has dawned... and - though the weather is wet and dreary - there is no freezing rain!
The weather isn't as bad as they predicted, my husband comments...
(Why did he worry?! )
Why do I worry... when economists publish gloomy forecasts in the newspaper, when my children tell me they want to try something new... whenever (in fact) any changes are predicted or I venture out to try something new?!
"Nothing ventured, nothing gained."
Don't worry about tomorrow, Jesus told his disciples... Let each day's troubles be enough for that day... Worrying won't add a single day to your life! (And anxiety might take a few away...) Your Heavenly Father - God - loves you... so help is near!
(Why is it so hard for me to live in that reality every day?!)
