in order to relieve myself and my un-shut-uppable brain of the anxiety that i am experiencing - that is, my visa paperwork is still invisible (US govt, please hurry up) - i have decided that perhaps the best way to quieten down is to remember how faithful God has been in my life. how come i'm anxious about something i have no control over (the outcome of which may just be the costly expense of changing my airticket... but certainly not a life or death sitch), knowing full well that I have a King who in all things, will work for the good of those who love Him? my doubting Him is not loving, and certainly not giving the Holy Spirit enough credit. God may not necessarily be early, but He is never late.

"Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go." (Joshua 1:9)
