I am realizing more and more that I struggle with fear.

Yesterday as I was boarding a plan for Arkansas to visit the Tyson Chicken Test Kitchen (try saying that fast three times) I could feel my shoulders get tense, an excruciating pain start on the right side of my neck, and nausea start to surface its ugly head.

I have struggled with migraines since college, so when those migraine type symptoms start to occur I mental prepare and brace myself to endure the pain for the next 4-5 days. But lately I am realizing that sometimes those migraines are more spiritual than they are physical.

What do I mean by that? Well, have you ever heard people say that sometimes they carry their “stress” in their shoulders or neck? I think most people carry stress there for a reason.

I think it’s Gods way of reminding us physically that we are carrying something in the spiritual world that we don’t need to carry. For me, its fear or worry. It might be something different for you.

As soon as I started to get those pains I immediately called my husband and had him pray and then texted a close friend of mine to ask for prayer. She said that she felt like I was holding on to something and that I needed to release it for that pain to subside. While I was waiting in line at Starbucks, I started to pray and felt like God was telling me to let go of my family.

Every time I fly by myself, which has been a lot as of late, I get fearful. Fearful that something might happen to the plane. Fearful that something might happen to Mike or Cason and that I will never see them again. That fear consumes me, especially on take off and landing. I can physically feel myself start to get tense and my heart to beat faster.  Now, mentally I know that God is in control and has our days ordained. But my heart cares so deeply for those I love that the idea of loosing them places me in a fear vice grip.

I recognized the fear I was holding onto, released it to God and immediately started to feel some relief.

Want to know something else?

On take off and landing I had complete peace, no nerves, no fear, no raised heart rate! God is so good! When we listen and release our worries or burdens to him, he carries that load for us so we can walk in peace! 🙂 Just wanted to share that because it was on my heart today.

Now on to the recipe… which is a goodie!
