I fear so many things, and I never realized just how much, until I reflect on what is causing my stress.
I fear for my daughter's health and safety to the point of struggling to leave her with others. It's not that I don't trust others, it's that I feel I'm responsible no matter what and HAVE to be present.
I fear the balancing of my finances, that I will be able to provide adaquately for my daughter.
I fear not being an adaquate mother for her.
I fear not being able to be there for her because I don't always take care of myself the way I should.
I fear being a failure.
And then i saw just how much my fears hold me back. I see just how little good my fears bring into my life. I chose to leave all my fears and struggles at the feet of God.
Heavenly Father;
LORD, you are creator of everything and over all. You have complete control and I thank you for your care and protection in my life.
LORD, forgive me for my doubt and fear. Forgive me for holding back from what you want from me out of fear. Why should I fear anything? If you are for me, who can stand against me?
LORD, take my fears, get rid of them. Give me the peace of knowing that you are in control and that you are protecting and caring for Alayna even more than I am. Guide me in my finances and help me to trust that you will provide all that we need.
LORD, create in me the kind of mother you wish for me to be. Guide me in how i raise Alayna, help me to raise her prepared for what your will for her is. Aide me in my journey to a healthier me. Guide my decicions in what I eat and when I exercise. Help me to crave you before food and sustain me and satisfy me in the foods that I eat.
I know that I can not fail if I am in your will. Guide me where you want me. I will go without question.
In Jesus' name I pray
AMEN
