Scripture Sunday's!

Welcome to 

Scripture Sunday's!

I was sitting at the place where I get my car detailed and the oil changed yesterday, and of course my brain was going in 100 different directions.. 

Blogging is one of the things that came across my mind because I am REALLY enjoying it! Like I have mentioned before, I had made a WordPress years ago and never did anything with it, (I think because the format was too difficult), and then my friend Danielle told me how awesome it was for her to record all the things that were going on with her engagement and wedding and that you could even make a book of all your blogs. 

Sooo, here I am today, blogging about mine and Coach's adventure being an engaged couple and things that are apart of our daily lives. 

I was thinking about all the cool posts that people blog about like "Thankful Thursday's" and thought how neat it would be for me to do Scripture Sunday's

As I have gone through trials in my life, and even when I just want to praise Him, it is comforting for me to turn to the Word. 

Something probably only a handful of people know about is my battle with anxiety and panic attacks that started a couple of years ago. I can honestly stand here today and say that my Great Physician has healed me from that and I praise Him for it. (For people who have experienced panic attacks they are NOT fun!! I do not wish them on anyone!!) 

One of my favorite scriptures that I still turn to is 

Phillipians 4:6
"Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.  

I do not even speak the word anxiety to myself because I am not going to speak that back over me. But I do still "worry" about things from time to time.. Like "Am I going to get this done by this deadline" or "how am I going to get X done".. Who DOESN'T worry in this world these days? 

What I have to remember is that God is in control and He always provides. He shows me this time and time again, and I just need to learn to trust Him! He knows EXACTLY what I need! 

Over the past couple of weeks, I have heard scripture quoted by other people that I have never heard before. I LOVE hearing it because I feel like it is helping me grow in my relationship with Him. I even have an app on my iPhone that gives a Verse of the Day which is really awesome.  I can even search by a word and it will bring up every verse that has that word in it. 

When this came to my mind I thought how awesome it would be for you to share your favorite verse or what verse you have came across that is new to you! 

I would love for you to share and learn more myself, so feel free to post your favorite verse in a comment. 

Until next week for another Scripture Sunday~

Hey Ashley!
This is Christine (Coach's cousin). I have been following your blog and enjoy your wonderful entertaining stories. Worry and anxiety can be very mean! Here is my scripture for your Scripture Sunday. The mind governed by the flesh is death, but the mind governed by the Spirit is life and peace. Romans 8:6 NIV
