A Thought.

I love to think.

I can sit and mull over something from every angle imaginable... and then start all over again.

Often, my thinking involves what could happen. If I do this, then this... If they say this, then I'll do that... When this comes in, I'll go here... On and on.

It gets worse when I'm facing a problem or challenge. I can work myself into quite a state contemplating all the scenarios that could go down. What's funny is more times than not, what actually winds up happening is something I never even thought of.

I do not even know why I keep up the habit.

Okay, yes I do. I like to feel like I'm in control. I like to feel like I have some kind of say over what is going to happen in my life. I want to feel like I'm prepared for whatever may come my way.

So, I think.

Yet what I should be focusing on is what I know. I know my God is ultimately the One in control. I know that no matter what happens, He's got my back. I know that there's nothing that will happen to me that He doesn't allow. I should be okay with that knowledge alone.

I'm working on it.
