When you feel anxious about anything, stop & count your blessings!!

When you are naturally an anxious person, ANYTHING out of the norm can throw you way off track!!! So when a hurricane comes the same week you get a few other blows, things can get a little out of control inside your head! 🗯

At least, that's what happened to me last year during the thousand year flood when I also lost my dear uncle. This time around I'm determined that through God's grace and peace alone it will be different for me. I WILL count my blessings and find my peace in Him. Because He is my provider and my comforter. And He is in control.

Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me. Therefore I am well content with weaknesses, with insults, with distresses, with persecutions, with difficulties, for Chri...

As I sit here reading "The Happiness Project," I am so overwhelmed by just how much I needed this book. Have any of you read this book?! What did you think of it? Posted by Allison Valree Federico on  Tuesday, November 1, 2016 When I sat down to begin reading, I heard the kids playing upstairs...and I was worried about it.... "What is my son getting into now?" (It's always, always always something!) "Are they going to get hurt?" "What if a neighbor stops by and realizes that I'm letting my kids play without helicoptering them? What will she think?" But the truth of the matter is, she is almost 5 and he is 2, and really they can play alone for 10 minutes while I read, and (as long as they don't burn the house down), most messes will be cleanable.... But the point is, I started out with the wrong mindset to begin! Just 5 minutes into my reading, I already see that! My kids are LAUGHING. And having FUN tog...
