Worry

It's a problem for many of us humans isn't it! Worry about this and that. Sometimes it's as simple as what to buy for dinner or worry if the others in the family might not like what we have chosen. Or what clothes are we going to wear today, and if someone might think it doesn't suit me. Other times it can be a noise we heard outside the house at night and it's a worry what it might be!

You know it's pointless actually worrying about anything because it's either not going to happen, or it is. And worrying about it isn't going to change anything.

God's word in the Bible has some good verses to help with worry.

“And why worry about your clothing? Look at the lilies of the field and how they grow. They don’t work or make their clothing, yet Solomon in all his glory was not dressed as beautifully as they are. And if God cares so wonderfully for wildflowers that are here today and thrown into the fire tomorrow, he will certainly care for you. Why do you have so little faith? “So don’t worry about these things, saying, ‘What will we eat? What will we drink? What will we wear?’ These things dominate the thoughts of unbelievers, but your heavenly Father already knows all your needs. Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need. “So don’t worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring its own worries. Today’s trouble is enough for today.”’ Matthew 6:28-34  (NLT)

So next time you worry about something, don’t!

Just read those verses again!
