Do you ever worry just a bit about the future? Is the stock market steady, is our government stable, is trouble on the horizon... etc. Well I hate to admit it but I have been concerned lately. So I began to pour this concern out to God.
My husband gave me a great verse:
Philippians 4:8King James Version (KJV)
8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
My son also gave me a great verse:
Isaiah 26:3King James Version (KJV)
3 Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.
I don't mean to make it sound like I was all in a dither but it was an underlying concern. And when we continue to carry or hold on to concerns it can become heavier with time. Then today I listened to this and it was the finial piece or should I say peace.
God's job is to care for his children. I am a child of God. He is my Father in Heaven and cares for me. So just in case you too have been carrying some underlying concerns I will share this peace with you.

Hi Judy, I know what you mean. This is just a busy time of year. Winter is coming and maybe things will slow down a bit... :-) We are well and trying to get the garden put by for winter. Hope you are well and enjoying your new home. (Kenny's Cabin)
