the last week or i've been feeling extremely eager......like i'm about to crawl out of my skin......perhaps anxious.....and it rings in my head "be anxious about nothing"
(def)eager: marked by keen, enthusiastic, or impatient desire or interest. lets dissect. if one was eager in the sense of a keen, enthusiastic desire, and one was also able to direct this eagerness towards a purpose...what an accomplished and joyful individual this would be! don't you think? yet, if one had an impatient desire, i think this would lend itself to something much more closely resembling anxiety. i think that eagerness (in its more pure form) is accompanied by a kind of excitement (and action?), while an impatient eagerness is accompanied by worry and/or stress. Eagerness is not necessarily a "bad" emotion. What does eager look like in verb form? We can be eager to do God's will, eager to serve. At the same time, remember: "Let not your heart be troubled..."
