The Little Red Wagon
Paws Before the Path
Funny thing about worry.
It never solved a case.
🐾Quest
A woman pulled a little red wagon, filled with worries that followed her everywhere.
“Stay here,”
she said as she set the wagon aside.
It rolled after her anyway.
Sometimes in the mornings, she’d try to pray.
But it felt like her prayers
went down the drain along with the toothpaste bubbles.
By the time she finished, her mind had already moved on.
One afternoon,
she glanced in the mirror and noticed how tired she looked.
A quiet truth rose.
You’re not meant to carry every what-if.
It felt true, and impossible all at the same time.
True things often do.
On the way to work,
she wondered what it would be like not to worry.
Just then she noticed how tightly she was holding everything.
She let out the breath
she didn’t know she’d been holding.
The wagon stayed beside her,
but it no longer felt like hers to pull alone.
What if sitting isn’t about stopping,
but about not carrying alone?
The Jesus Clue
“Cast all your anxieties on Him,
because He cares for you.”
(1 Peter 5:7)
