When
I was a small child I didn’t have a care in the world. I trusted my father to
provide for me. I trusted my mother to comfort me. All I had to do was rest,
play, and do as I was told. Now that I’m grown, why do I have to make
everything so complicated? Why do I take on the cares of the entire world? It’s
too much for me. I need to focus on the things I can actually do something about
instead of fretting over everything else that is outside of my control. But I
guess it’s easier to shirk my personal responsibilities when I’m too busy
trying to run the lives of everyone else. But what has caused me to change so
much? Why am I no longer trusting and free? Why do I not trust my heavenly
Father to provide for me? Why do I not trust the Holy Spirit to comfort me? Why
is it so easy to forget that all I have to do is rest, play, and do as I’m
told? What happened between now and then that made me forget how to live?
Moreover, what can I do now to help myself to remember?
