Panic Attack

Anxiety my old friend. You take away my joy and my rest. My devotional today quoted Corrie Ten Boom: "Worries carry responsibilities that belong to God, not you. Worry does not enable us to escape evil; it makes us unfit to cope with it when it comes." So true. Some days, I am trusting and good to take life one day at a time. But other days, I start stressing about the future to the point of panic attacks. I am reminded of my Dad. He once asked me: How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time. He was trying to tell me to concentrate on the now of the goal and the results will follow.
