On this site I have often prayed for others, who asked for advice in certain areas, to get off the mental hamster wheel that was tormenting them. I have been able to do that myself, in the past, but am really struggling to do so right now with a particularly very concerning issue.

I pray for peace, to let it go, to just love and then later I will feel loving and at peace. But then maybe the next day or sooner I find I am back on that hamster wheel again, getting all upset. Please pray for me to turn it all over to the Father. Please pray for His will to be done in all of this and for me to get out of the way, mentally and any other way.

Praying for you, sister.
This simple hymn helps to put my mind at ease...

Lord, my weak thought in vain would climb
to search the starry vault profound;
in vain would wing her flight sublime
to find creation's utmost bound.

But weaker yet that thought must prove
to search thy great eternal plan,
thy sovereign counsels, born of love
long ages ere the world began.

When my dim reason would demand
why that, or this, thou dost ordain,
by some vast deep I seem to stand,
whose secrets I must ask in vain.

When doubts disturb my troubled breast,
and all is dark as night to me,
here, as on solid rock, I rest -
that so it seemeth good to thee.

Be this my joy, that evermore
thou rulest all things at thy will;
thy sovereign wisdom I adore,
and calmly, sweetly, trust thee still.
--Ray Palmer, 1858

I pray for you to find that peace and love of the Lord and rest in his everlasting arms,

Have you noticed a trigger or situation that sets it off?

I am praying for you dear Sister, I am so sorry that you are facing problems in this area. You are much loved and appreciated by many and especially by God.
You are His and He will always provide, Never forget that, No matter how dark it seems, He will light the way.
I have to remind myself of this regularly as well.

Lol. My, aren't you insightful, though? Yes is the answer. In the meantime I have gotten feedback which makes me happy and no longer upset. I so appreciate all the prayers everyone!
