Holding On
Mark 9:24 “I do believe, help me overcome my unbelief.” “I’m worried about my future, my present, my choices — everything,” admitted a student in my class. “I so want to make the right decisions. But what if I don’t? What then?” Some of us are paranoid we might make a big time mistake, that we will misinterpret God’s plan for us. We become so preoccupied with making certain our future is perfect that we often miss contentment today. Gradually we may lose the ability to enjoy our jobs, our relationships, our recreation, our faith, ourselves. We long to relax and give it all to God, but we can’t. Why? Who or what taught us that a situation or friendship must be just right or it is worthless? Perhaps it is time to risk uncovering our misconceptions about living a successful life. Let us take the initial precarious step toward peaceful living by talking with a caring friend or knowledgeable professional. With help we can begin to discover the perfectionistic thinking that binds us. While holding on to our shaky faith, we can ask God to increase our confidence and courage. And move on toward positive change. Lord, increase my faith. Please teach me what is keeping me from “letting go” and allowing you to work in my life. Joan C. Webb
