Don’t Fret

Anticipation can feel like standing on the edge of something just about to unfold. It holds energy, but if we grip it too tightly, it can turn into anxiety. The shift occurs when we try to control what hasn’t happened yet.  When you release the outcome back to Creator, anticipation becomes lighter, almost joyful and childlike again. I can wait without tension, trusting what’s coming will arrive in its time. 

“Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God.”  

Philippians 4:6 

We don’t have to carry the weight of what’s ahead. What’s meant for you won’t miss you. Breathe, and let today be enough. 

ABBA, hold my heart steady as I wait.  Keep anticipation from turning into anxiety, and fill me instead with trust and eternal joy.  I place what’s ahead into Your hands.
