IVF: I'm Worried

I'm worried about my doctors appointments.
I'm worried about the medications.
I'm worried about being worried.

I'm worried about not getting pregnant.
I'm worried about getting pregnant.
I'm worried about being worried.

I'm worried about our finances, infertility is expensive.
I'm worried about investing in something that may yield no return.
I'm worried about being worried.

I'm worried about miscarrying or having an unhealthy baby.
I'm worried about what Google says, are those accurate statistics?
I'm worried about being worried.

I'm worried about David, is he eating the right things?
I'm worried about my diet, am I exercising enough?
I'm worried about being worried.

I'm worried about what people think.
I'm worried about doing the right thing, or the wrong thing.
I'm worried about being worried.

My anxieties are multiplying.
My emotions are out of control!
But then I came into your sanctuary,
Where you hold my right hand, where You guide me with your counsel,
And there my worries fade.
You remind me that You are the strength of my heart and my portion forever.
You draw near to me and I'm no longer worried about being worried.

You satisfy. You calm. You quiet. You restore.
I'm no longer worried about being worried.

Lord, Teach me to trust You, to keep my eyes on You, to hide beneath the shelter of Your wings.
Melt away my fears and my worries, turn my heart to You and You alone.
