Driving myself nuts

by Leave a Comment

I was driving myself nuts with our debt.  It is a constant thing I think about, which in turn has made me become almost a complete hermit.  I have done some thinking these last few days and I need to stop obsessing like I have or I am going to make myself sick.

I think it has already affected me to the point that when I think about our debt it make it hard to breathe.  So today I am praying for strength from God to please give me something else to fill my thoughts.  I need to have a life even if it is a simple life like I have now but I need peace.

After all my thoughts were it isn’t going to go away anytime soon.  I might as well enjoy my life in the process.  What made me realize this was of  course my bodies reaction and a show I saw on TV the other day, I think it was Dr. Phil.  Were there were a few couple who are almost paralyzed by thougths of their debt, to the point where they don’t get out of bed.   I don’t want to be like that I want to live life content and at peace that I am doing all I can.
