Fitting It25

Posted In Life Stuff

No fancy pictures here, just straight up honesty. Too many times lately I have been fitting life around stuff and not fitting stuff around life. Some things creep in and too much time is devoted to them. Life gets busy and I forget the important things in life. I forget the important people in my life. I forget the blessings i have been given and the Giver. I spend too much time worrying. I worry about my future, I worry about what others think of me and I worry about whats going on in the world and not worrying about whats going on in my own life and relationships. Tell me something-What’s something you worry about?

    Frankly, I worry that I don't worry enough, and that I let things slip by that I really should be addressing. Being a procrastinator and a lazy person, I worry that I'm dumping things on God that I should, by rights, be dealing with.
  • Some good things to worry about. I def am a procrastinator

    I think if I listed what I don't worry about the list will be much shorter. Unfortunately I can't think of anything I don't worry about at the moment.
  • Well that's awesome u don't worry much. I wish I didn't. :)

    My worrying displays itself as impatience - I want things done on time and I worry that I won't get everything done that I need to. So I hurt my relationship with God by worrying and my relationship with others by being impatient with them.
  • yep. worry does nobody any good
  • I also worry that time is passing quick and I am so busy I forget to be present in the moment...have to remember to take a step back and enjoy the moments

    "What’s something you worry about?"

    this is gonna look like a funny answer, but its true...

    i worry about that i worry.

    i really have nothing deeper or meaningful to say on that. other than i know when i "worry" it exasperates everything. which...makes me worry more.

    however, i still worry.

    mmmhmmm, welcome to my noggin.
  • my life is one big question mark at the moment.

    today's biggest worry: "fitting in" to this new small group i started attending.
  • well I know you will. It's like that first day of school. haha
  • Ur not alone bro. I worry way too much about way too much. It's something I've been trying to deal with.
  • glad I'm not alone
  • hey man, great blog, love the design and clean looks... I would like to think I don't worry about anything very much... but I for me it seems like once I get distracted by the things going on in my life I realize I am worrying about everything... so I gotta smack myself in the face and get back on track! ultimately I think I worry most about money, not because I don't make enough... but because somehow I always succeed at spending more than I should...
  • thanks man. so true. its all about how much we spend
  • I'm the graphics/visuals guy for a college ministry so I worry about how production is done and when stuff goes wrong I cringe. No one else really notices it but boy do I.
  • yep. the burden of technology

    "I forget the blessings i have been given and the Giver. "

    really like the way you phrased that - Someday i pray that i won't be able to say i do this as often as i do now...

    God has saved my life and blessed me with my life, thank God
  • thanks
  • Besides all those you just said, I worry about the decisions I've made or those I have to make.
  • me too:)
  • I believe I have the spiritual gift of worry. :) I tend to worry about everything and when things are "good" I worry about when the next "glitch" is going to come! Recently, I found a great definition of worry: Worry is the sin of distrusting the promises and power of God. Worry is the sin of saying: “You know what God, either I don’t trust Your promises or I don’t trust Your ability to act on Your promises.” I am slowly learning that I must give EVERYTHING over to God and trust that He is all powerful and the He is capable of taking care of me.
  • amen
  • thats good man
