Worry, why?

      Im sitting in bed, on sunday night trying to unwind & get about 6-8 hrs of rest.  All the sudden the dread of "in 3 days my boy is having oral surgery" popped in my head.   My daughter had her wisdom teeth taken out a hand full of months ago. She had anistichia .  I never had anistigia before,  so my experiance is limited.  Krystal was very upset & confused after her procedure.  I had a two hour drive on the way home with her.  I do wish I had a responsable adult to drive us home.  I did not feel like a responsible  adult AT ALL.  I was so upset to see me girl like that.  I don't want to relive those feelings with my son on Wed.         I am so blessed that those feelings of anxiety went away seconds after they popped up. Yup holding onto worry IS a choice.  Letting go of worry Is something I  have learned how to do.   The old me would have held onto that worry for days.  I would have been impossible   to live with, snappy & short tempered.  Of course that would have lead to the stomach issues, yeah its not pretty, that goes along with me being an emotional mess.  Its great how my mental mumbo jumbo effects my body too.        All worring is going to do is make me missrsble for days.  Not just me but everyone around me.  Thank God I now know that worrying is not helpfull AT ALL.  I choose instead to lift my son in prayer, as I  do every day.  For me prayer is so much more benificial then worrying.  I'll let God take care of my son, he'll do a better job then I will, after all he is His child first.             -My boy, Brian, ( I call him Bud cause he's MY BUD) went through his procedure just fine.  He was laughing when he woke up. The first thing he said to me was that he met Bob Marley.  He has a few days of recovery. Now hopefully his teeth will no longer hurt, & they will stay straight. Brian does have beautiful teeth.  I don't know where he got them from. -       Don't get me wrong, I use to love to worry.  Worrying feed me, I lived to worry.  Not worrying takes a lot of practice,  kinda like learning to ride a bike.  I fell learning to ride my bike,  lots of skinned knees & band aids, but I wanted so badly to be able to ride that beautiful bike, so I stuck with it & kept trying, I did not give up.  I will not give up on handing over my worries. Psalm 55:22 Cast your cares on the Lord and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous be shaken. On a side note, if you are not a "God person" turn your worries over to whoever your higher power is.
