Ever lose sleep worrying about something, only to wake the next morning wondering why you made such a big 'fuss' over the issue? I do!! I recently got a MASSIVE telephone bill which I knew I could not have incurred. To cut a long story short, I lost some sleep and allowed anxiety to get the better of me. But today (2 weeks later) I thank God for that incident because it helped me come to the realisation that my peace of mind is much more valuable than the few hundred dollars I may have to pay. Romans 8:28 says that God will use EVERY situation for the good of those who listen to, love and trust in Him. Allowing ourselves undue anxiety makes us unable to listen, to trust and to love!
Next time, instead of letting my tension rise I am going to chilax and face it with the understanding that all I have (including my money) is in God's hands, and if I have to pay the massive bill I do it trusting that life will go on and, if I am ready to listen to God speak through the situation, He will use it for my good!

I just found your song, "At the Foot of the Cross," on YouTube while looking for something else and I was really touched by the lyrics/music, the beauty and heart with which you sang, and most of all the merciful love of our Savior. You have a new fan - thank you for what you are doing, and I will be keeping an eye out for you and your music:)
