Worry

Today God blessed me by giving me the chance to take care of many things that have been worrying me for several days now.  Now, at the end of the day, I feel much better--less stressed, more relaxed, more optimistic, more as if I'll be able to sleep well--that I have felt for the past several days, and I am more able to trust that God will take care of several other things that I've also been worrying about, and that there is really no need to worry.  It is a true blessing.

And yet--I can't help wishing that I could attain this level of trust and serenity without having so many less worries at the end of the day as I had at the beginning.  I wish I could just trust God to take care of my problems as He sees fit, rather than being happy with Him because He took care of my problems today.

Or am I thinking about it the wrong way?  Should I be thankful that God took care of my problems (well, of course!), and see this as proof that He will always help me (again, of course), and take this proof and use it to remind myself of His faithfulness when I'm worrying about something else, and see my lack of worry as me doing just that--seeing that God is faithful and taking comfort in that?

I don't know, but either way, thank You again, Lord, for all Your help today, and thank You for Your faithfulness!
