It seems that I have my own Ugly Rock.

Sometimes, I write something, and then I have to do, or go through the very thing, that I’ve just written about. Recently I wrote, Will you work with Our Lord, to shape your Ugly Rock? To then, … well, This week’s post was the start of me working through something.

______________________________

Recently something has come back to my mind. Something that happened a long while back, that I had just buried. I’ve been trying to re-bury it, but now that it has resurfaced, it won’t go back down.
I’m now left with replays, and all the “what if” questions.

The “what if” questions do me no good!
I know this, I’ve even written a previous post about this of,
Cut away the Veil of What If’s.
I know that I need to focus on “what is”, instead of “what if”. But knowing this and doing this are two very different things.

I’ve had the nagging thought of, “just write it out”, but I don’t want to. I’d rather just bury it again, and not look at it, but I can’t seem to do that.
So here is my first look at writing it out.

I write it, with the full knowledge that, because it’s written, it doesn’t mean that it has to be published. Some things can be written out, and then never shared. It is OK to do this!
If I do change my mind at a latter date, then that is a decision for a tomorrow. For today, I will just take the next step and just write what I write.

The Lords prayer does say, “Give us Today, our Daily Bread.”
So I shall, just try to do today, that which I need to do today, and let tomorrow deal with itself, when it comes around.

(Verse 34 is the bit that came to my mind, but a quick search found the whole passage below.)

Matthew 6:25-34
Do Not Worry
25 “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? 26 Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27 Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life?

28 “And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. 29 Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. 30 If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you—you of little faith? 31 So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32 For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. 33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. 34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.

You maybe asking, “What is this rock that you have then?”

That is something for me to try and write out tomorrow (possibly), which might or might not be published.
One step at a time, is the way to try and work through this.
I’ll just keep trying to take it to My Lord, and ask, “What do I do with THIS?”

If you have your own ugly rock, then I can only suggest that you try to do the same. Take it to The Lord Your God, and ask Him, “Help me with this Lord.”
