In Other Words Tuesday



“Stop fighting,
stop resisting,
stop complaining,
and start trusting
your sovereign heavenly Father;
refuse to worry.”

~Chip Ingramreunion~Amen, great quote. How many of us love to fight what we know is the right thing to do? Or resist the leading of the Lord? And of course, there is the subject of complaining. But, what about truly trusting our Father to meet our every need? Refuse to worry, instead totally depend upon our Father. Worry is just a tool from satan, used to confuse us, depress us, bring us down. Instead of worrying, trust and obey our Father. He alone, knows what is best for us. Am I happy about my eyes? Of course not, but I refuse to worry. Trusting is what I choose to do, whatever will be, will be. And, I know, it will be my Father's will. Amen.

Great words. Yes we just need to trust. I try.
BTW I have chosen the fabric. Still deciding on which pattern I think you will best. I'll let you know when I am done and mailing. BTW I didn't mail that book. I'll mail it with the apron.
Have a wonderful Wednesday. I need to work on a photo!

Yes, trusting is so hard. We always think we know of a better way, don't we? A great reminder, my dear friend.

Amen! There is an old song that goes...

"I believe,
I believe,
I believe,
So why should I worry or fret?

He holds the future in the palm of His Hand,
And He has never failed me yet,
I know He's leading and still has control,
So why should I worry or fret?"
