Are you turning your problems to God?

As my day has gone on, I have been having a lot of anxiety. Over what? I have no idea exactly. Could it be the thought of every thing I do with my Daughter at Christmas time and how this is the first Christmas my Mom is not here to share it with us? Most likely. Also, I'm sure being a woman and having random emotion spurts does not help either. So my Daughter is taking her daily nap and I am sitting in the living room finishing wrapping her and my husbands presents and I, out of no where get this overwhelming, anxiety feeling come over me.

Instead of turning to God in prayer for the way I was feeling I just sat there and continued with what I was doing just trying to let my feelings disappear on their own. It doesn't work that way and I knew that but some times we all are so stubborn to make things different in our own ways and on our own time we don't even stop and think to talk to God about it. He can help with everything that we are going through.

I had something completely off of this topic that I was going to write about today, until I got on my facebook right before I came here to write my blog and low and behold God had used a good friend of mine to share some of His words with me. (Humble yourselves, therefore, under God's mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. 1 Peter 5:6-7) It is amazing that at times we may put God on the back burner to deal with something on our own but He shows us even though we were not thinking of Him, He was still thinking of us, Always!
Thank you for letting me go on about something that I thought was amazing and helped me today, I hope it has helped someone out there also. Have a blessed day!
