She'd just worry. Moms do that you know. By the end of the week, Patrick was fine and it appeared that we had all survived. All that energy and nothing to show for it. Worry does nothing to bring us closer to God.
Fear is the antithesis of faith.
The burdens in our life, the things that frighten us the most, are opportunities to be faithful. I need to depend on God and every once in awhile life throws something my way to bring me to my knees. I doubt I'll ever live up to the message on the magnet. Very few mothers do. But I'm sure going to try to pray more and worry a whole lot less.
