My oldest decided he was moving yet again to another state where he only knows people he has met on the Internet. I have not heard from him since he made this decision. I have left text messages, phone messages, with no response. I should be used to this since he goes off the grid often. But as a mother it is worrisome and frustrating.
My youngest is graduating next month and turning 18 this month and he is feeling the tug of independence and is expressing it with his sarcasm. I am waiting for the moment of "Well you do know I am 18 now...."
Taking a deep breath.........I love you both, more then you will ever know or understand.
Any other tips? How do you deal with your anger?
Fear is an
emotion we’ve all encountered. Even the bravest man or woman has felt the quite
gnawing of fear in their hearts. It’s wondering what might happen. It’s knowing
things are out of our hands. It’s losing control. It’s expecting the worst. It’s
having the jitters. It’s losing our appetite. Queasiness. Sweating palms.
Jangling nerves. Furrowed brow. Trembling hands. Pounding heart. Shortness of
breath. Butterflies in the stomach.
When worry,
anxiety, fretting, and fear overwhelm our hearts and minds, we tend to forget
everything else. But God wants us to remember one very important thing –
Him. When fears press in around you,
cling to God. Hang onto His promises for you. Hold tight to hope. Trust God with your very life, and your faith will drive
out the fears.
