Okay, so like a fool I decided to promise God not to buy lotto tickets. (Mercifully, I didn't promise him not to do anymore online sweepstakes, or I'd really be freaking.)
Yes, I know, I should trust God and not lean to my own understanding. But in my very nerve-wracked fearful moments, I start thinking that winning lotto will free me from all my distresses. Yep, it's one in a zillion chances of me winning the big one. (Actually, it's 50/50. Either I win or I don't.) But this trusting God without seeing a human way out -- even such a far-fetched one-- is fricking difficult.
Lord, help me to rest in your care. Love you, God!
