Mountains Out of Mole Hills

The past few of weeks I've struggled with some things. I've been struggling with giving them over to God instead of me worrying it to death. It all seem like what God was calling me to do couldn't happen because I didn't have the means to do it with. I wouldn't have admitted it then, but I was doubting God. I figured He had the power to create the universe, knit me together in my mother's womb, give me a purpose, and show me where He wanted me to go, but, not be able to get me to that chapter in my life. No I was forgetting who my maker was, is, and will forever be. The one who listens to a child's first prayers, and is there to see every person who comes to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. I was reminded that my Jesus is bigger than the mountains I make out of mole hills. I bet God chuckles every time I make a mountain out of a mole hill.
About a week ago I gave that mountain to Him. Laid it at His feet.  Soon after He reminded that the mountain I'm seeing is only a mole hill because I know Christ. Philippians 4:13 says, "I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me." I love that verse! I (Felice) CAN do ALL things through Christ who gives ME (Felice) STRENGTH!
I have a problem with making mountains out of mole hill, just ask my mom. Like in math, the problem can seem so complicated and I'll try over and over to do it on my own, knowing I need help, and I'll get so frustrated and stressed over this one problem. But, when I finally take it to mom and ask for help and she explains, it turns out to be something so simple. That's the same with God, I need to learn to take my problems to God before I ever start stressing over them, getting frustrated, or getting worried.
    I love the way God works in people's lives. I've seen Him work throughout my life, especially looking back the last few years. He sends people who I've just met, friends, parents, and siblings to teach me lessons. I love my brothers, sister, and parents so much. I love my family. I'm so blessed I can't even begin to describe how much.
I've started to ramble some. I'm just can't thank my Jesus enough. He's done so much for a girl who doesn't deserve any of it. Joel 2:26,  "And ye shall eat in plenty, and be satisfied, and praise the name of the LORD your God, that hath dealt wondrously with you: and my people shall never be ashamed." Never be ashamed of who you are in Christ, and remember to take EVERYTHING to God prayer.
