“There isn't enough room in your mind for both worry and faith. You must decide which one will live there.”
This quote was recently posted to Facebook by a friend of mine, and it pierced my heart. While it certainly wasn't a conscious decision, worry has won the battle in me for months. Personal challenges and concerns have consumed my mind. And when that happens, faith loses, crowded out by anxious thoughts.
What's crazy is that often the things we worry about never materialize! So the worry is for nothing. And in the meantime, it saps energy, motivation and focus...which is why I haven't posted anything on this blog for more than a year!
So, while I'm not a big fan of New Year's resolutions, this January is a new start - a new season. It's time for faith to once again take up residence in my mind, NOT worry.
Stopped in just to see if the pizza had changed. What a nice surprise!!! Great thoughts and true. No wonder Jesus told us many times...don't worry. The snow coming down is beautiful...like my snowglobe
