Pray

Is anyone among you in trouble? Let them pray. Jas 5:13

Panic is a vice that I am ever so prone to. It takes such a brief moment for things to go from good to confusing, chaotic,  and crazy. In these moments, (which were ever so many especially the last couple of months adjusting to being a mommy) I just panic. I remember the evening I was convinced my daughter was semi-conscious and lethargic. I started making a mental a list of potential diagnoses while my mum insisted that the little girl was just sleepy... Mehn! She was right. I wish that was the last time I did a cray. There have been so many more.

I am learning to stop. Breathe and pray. So much easier said and done but at least now that the saying is out of the way, I can get on with the doing.

(P.S I confess that I did cheat by pulling out my stethoscope and giving a quick listen before letting the innocent child get some rest :-D )


 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Phil 4:6-7
