"I need to worry about my fertility now so I don't have problems later."
How it sounds in your head: Maybe if I worry about it enough and plan everything perfectly, I can make sure it works out. If I don't think about it now and prepare, something bad might happen later and it'll be my fault.
"Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble."
-- Matthew 6:34Control spirit and anxiety lying that worry is responsible planning and that your vigilance secures the future.
She's being taught to 'plan ahead' and 'be responsible' just as adult anxieties are being modeled around her. Worry feels like protection and preparation rather than what it is—torment.
Mary was a young virgin—conception was biologically impossible for her—yet when the angel announced she'd have a baby, God's response to impossibility was 'NOTHING is impossible with God.' She didn't worry her way into motherhood; she simply received the word.
I REFUSE the lie that worry protects my future! IT IS WRITTEN that I should be anxious for NOTHING—worry is not wisdom; it's torment. My fertility is not secured by my anxiety but by my FATHER's faithfulness! IT IS WRITTEN that with God NOTHING is impossible—including the perfect timing and function of my body when the time comes. I cast this care on Him because He cares for ME. I stand on the BARAK blessing that operated on Abraham's household without his worry, without his striving. God's got this—I can REST!
The Father is running toward you, taking that burden of worry OFF your shoulders. He's not asking you to figure out the future—He's asking you to trust the One who already secured it, and He delights in carrying what's too heavy for you.
