2 more about anxiety
Ok, I don't make this stuff up. I just get to regurgitate it :)
"Quiet tension is not trust. It is simply compressed anxiety" Linda Dillow
and
"Our hearts are restless, unless they find their rest in Thee" (meaning God... and I don't know who originally said this, but our Pastor, Bauer Evans re-said it)
Can I just say again, how much I LOVE our new church? It is part of a network of churches... called Sovereign Grace Ministries. They have great worship, great teachings, great books and great people!

"The beginning of anxiety is the end of faith. The beginning of faith is the end of anxiety. All our fret and worry are caused by calculating without God" George Mueller
Yikes! How convicting is that? I also heard this quote at our women's meeting last week. The main theme was trusting in God. I think my whole life I have struggled with worry. May God change me so one day, they could say of me:
"Strength and dignity are her clothing, and she smiles at the future" Proverbs 31:25!

1st post
After much prompting by my husband, a cousin and some friends, I have now joined the world of blogging. I always felt kind-of selfish. Like, why should I ask my friend's to read my blog? I should just email them! But my friend Megan promised to read it if I started one (I read hers everyday). So to Mike and Megan... here we go!
I am a creature of God, and he has an undoubted right to do with me as seemeth good in his sight - He has my heart in His hands." Ann Judson
I heard this quote last week at a women's meeting through my church, Crossway (http://www.crosswayma.org/home.htm). This church has been such a HUGE blessing. It takes us an hour to get there, but it is so worth it! Anyways, I had a hard time coming up with a title for this blog and when I heard that quote it reminded me that I used "In His Hands" as the title of my newsletters when I was a missionary intern. I still need to be reminded daily that I am a creature of God; he is sovereign and in control of everything; and that he truly, truly as my heart (and my life) in His hands.
until tomorrow...
