The Pain of Fear
With all of the stress and concern over the financial crisis we, along with many of our church friends, have really been hit hard by these events. The mental toll and worry have been palatable for most.
During Mass this passed Sunday, I was praying about the pain associated with that weight on us and I thought back to the many times in my life where the world had seemed to weigh heavy upon me. After months of trying to fight those tough events and fearing the worst, they always ended up so painful that I would just give the problems up to God.
That moment of release, of choosing faith over fear, was always immediately followed by an incredible sense of release and deep, inner peace.
In talking with DC I explained that it doesn't mean the road will get any easier, only that the Lord will give you the strength to travel it.
During Mass it occurred to me that the pain we feel prior to that moment of trust, that moment of faith, is the pain of holding on so tightly to a problem the Lord is trying to pull from us, a problem of which he already has the solution. The longer we hold on, the tighter we grasp and try to control those areas of life, the more painful it becomes, until finally, we are unable to deal with it anymore. Then, and only then, do we release those problems and allow God to perform his will in our lives.
So, tonight, I learned from my previous lessons and let go early. Take the worries, Lord. Take the weight of fear. Take the pain of holding on to that which I cannot control. Take it. And surprise me with your solution.
I can't wait to see what He comes up with.
