I am a worrier. I worry about, well practically everything! My husband never worries about a single thing. It makes me crazy! I can see that his way is much healthier but I cannot convince myself to let go. What is it about worrying that gets under our skin and doesn't let go? I feel like the cloak of worry is velcroed to my body. I go to sleep with it, I wake up with it. I take it to the movies with me. It distracts me through dinner.
Worrying never gets anyone anywhere! Things end up happening the way they are going to happen whether you are worrying about it or not.
So, what is YOUR secret to peeling this cloak of worry out of your life?

All in God's Time
Patience is not one of my strengths. But my husband and my mother-in-law are overflowing with it.
I struggle, I fight, I worry things to death and they sit back and say, "just let it be Toby things will happen in their own time".
And every single time they are right!!
After that every single time I always say, "I'm done worrying."
I like to think I get better each time but I sure have a long way to go.
The hardest thing I've ever done is to 'Let go and let God', but I actively practice that every day and I am amazed at all the things that come my way, just when I least expect them. At that moment just when things are on the verge of getting desperate, something pops up and I just have to laugh and say "okay, God, you've been there all along and you got me again."
How easy is it for you to 'let go and let God'?
