Be anxious for nothing

"Be anxious for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto Christ. And the peace of Christ, which passes all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus." --Philippians 4:6-7

This bible verse was included in an email sent this morning. It could not have hit the nail on the head any harder. As many of you know Mom is going to have a heart cath done tomorrow morning. Yes, she has had one before, and people have them everyday, but it doesn't seem to comfort me much. I know God has a plan for everything and it's in His Will, it's just hard for me to give my 'yes' to Him sometimes. I feel in my heart all will go well, but it's still scary. I continue to ask you guys to be in prayer for her. I pray the Lord guides the doctors through the procedure and gives them the gift of discernment on how to make mom better. I also pray that we as her family and friends can be supportive and helpful in the way she needs us to be. I ask for forgiveness and prayer that I do not become mother hen and smother her. Most of all I pray in thanksgiving for all those who surround mom in love, prayer, and take the time out of their busy lives to be there for her.

Thank you Emma & Madeline for being patient with me as I am stressed. Eric, thank you for being my rock. In the midst of stressing about Mom and Gustav, you keep reminding me that God always has our best interests at heart, and no matter what happens He is there.
