""Patricia Wilson delivers an encouraging book for those of us who are chronic worriers. She takes us on a 4-week tour of the scriptures and of our own faith, offering a daily reading, scriptural reflection, a prayer, and a mindfulness exercise to help us ""wrap our arms around"" the worry that slows us down. During the 28-day journey, she dispenses wisdom that undoubtedly comes from personal experience, challenges us, questions us, and motivates us. Patricia Wilson's 4-week work has opened my eyes and allowed me to 'Let go and let God.'
