even if the bottom DOES fall out

so i have been a bit guarded as of late, due to events that have occurred over the last eight or nine months. guarded is not a word i would have used to describe myself prior to now. when it comes to people, when it comes to joe's job, i sort of am expecting everything to go to crap. well, maybe expecting isn't the right word...i guess i am holding my breath, so to speak; and if it does, i won't be surprised. now, i understand that this is not very faithful of me. if i truly trusted God, then it wouldn't matter. it wouldn't matter if joe lost his job. it wouldn't matter if every person i know failed me miserably. it wouldn't matter if my house burned to the ground. because even if all this stuff happens, which of course don't want to happen, God is still in control. as long as i have Jesus, even if everyone and everything i love is taken from me, i will be ok. which is really hard to remember sometimes.

ok, most of the time...so feel free to remind me.
