Don’t fret or worry. Instead of worrying, pray. Let petitions and praises shape your worries into prayers, letting God know your concerns. Before you know it, a sense of God’s wholeness, everything coming together for good, will come and settle you down. It’s wonderful what happens when Christ displaces worry at the center of your life. - Philippians 4:6-8

I read this today and spent time just typing out every single thing I could think of that I’m worried about. Did the problems go away? Nope. But I do honestly feel a sense of relief. I’m still going to have to figure this stuff out and work through these issues, but they aren’t festering in my soul anymore.
