Welcome

Good day to you..
Thank you for visiting my blog.
I hope that you find the information useable, use what you can,
discard what you cannot and leave me a thought or two of your own.

A great anxiety

Another day has come and gone, come and gone.  I am having great anxiety about whether or not I will survive travel food this weekend.  I am thinking that it is something I must plan for, if I fail to plan, I will fail at eating this weekend.  My Family in Q-city is known for Big family gatherings with lots of food choices.  This time will be no different, actually worse because it is a funeral.  People will be bringing food.  Lucky me!  My plan is to take my 100 calorie snacks with me, I am hoping that my father will be making my turkey bacon as usual, just need to let him know about the egg white.  Otherwise I will be hitting the Vee, Hy-Vee that is to get much needed items.  If I cannot figure out any healthy food choices I will be hitting the Vee for sure to get an awesome salad from the bar.  I know that Wendy's has 500 calorie meals.  I will also search in Q-City to see what other restaurants we have in common with Como, this will help me know what to eat.  So planning ahead will make this stay a lot better.  I am still unsure of where I am actually staying, but I feel confident as to where I will not be staying, so that helps some.   My other issue is that this is the first trip home without my hubby.  It has been ages, I mean ages since I have traveled down that road alone.

Anxiety... I think that will be the word for the day.  Anxiety is-feeling of worry: nervousness or agitation, often about something that is going to happen. 

So what is our answer to this anxiety other then being prepared?  Lets take it to the Word and see. 
We see in Matthew 6:25-34 ESV

“Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?

It also tells me in: Philippians 4:6 ESV


Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything

And one more scripture just in case I am not there yet would be:
Philippians 4:13 ESV


I can do all things through him who strengthens me.

Okay, I have my plan, I know the word and I am armed and ready for my journey.  Thank you Lord.
