Wow!

Last Thursday I had a sort of God moment while walking the GV campus on my way to the next class. I noticed that with all the leaves off the trees, I could see a path with a few benches along it. In the summer this is completely hidden by the trees and I never would have known about it had someone not showed it to me. It is completely exposed, however, because of the bare trees. All of a sudden, I had a flash of worry about how the leaves were going to grow back. In that split second, in my mind, I could not think of how they could grow back. I had a picture of myself trying to make the leaves grow back. Its silly of course and the thought came to me that it is not mine to worry about. I cannot make the leaves grow back by worrying about it. Whether I worry about it or not, they will grow back. I think the Lord showed me that I am worrying about things in my life that are not mine to worry about, they are his worry. My worry of them will not change the season. I am to trust him. Truly making leaves grow back on trees is way beyond me. It would be foolish of me to attempt it. So, it is foolish of me to worry about seasons in my life and how they will happen. It is beyond me and not mine to worry about!
