If You Worry--You Didn't Pray

May 23, 2005

Will I have a job next year? This is the question many are asking this week as our jobs all seem to be in jeopardy. First reaction is panic. What will I do without insurance? Then I read that lack of faith causes panic. If you worry--you didn't pray. If you pray--don't worry.

I was told that we all should all have a SFGTD box. This stands for SOMETHING FOR GOD TO DO. I guess what needs to be done is put that concern into the SFGTD box and keep on going day to day until I hear what my fate will be.

What is really important is that God never shuts a door without opening a window for us. Maybe, just maybe, God has something more important for me to do with the rest of my life instead of sitting in a classroom all day watching students be disrespectful to teachers and other adults. It is very hard for me to accept this behavior and I am afraid if I stay here it will make me bitter against young people and I really don't want to feel like that. So maybe there is something more I can do with my life and God already knows what that is.

It is getting to the point where I just stopped worrying and put it into His hands. Taking one day at a time is very hard when rumors are flying, but that is just what I have decided to do.

"Today is going great so far and I am looking forward to tomorrow."

"Today is the tomorrow I worried about yesterday."

I know all of these sayings mentioned above are ones you have probably all heard before, but this month they all have come back to mind and have helped me through some trying days.

I am so blessed in so many ways and I just wanted to write this to thank God for each and every one of my blessings.
