Do Not Worry

Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble. (Matthew 6:34)

 

Make no mistake about it, worry is fear, and fear is the archenemy of love and faith. Worry occupies the space in our lives that faith longs to fill, and that faith is the success and confidence of the child of God. We cannot fight the battles of the Lord and worry at the same time, because worry paralyzes us in a world of "what ifs." Anxiety results from the unrest in our hearts when we believe the Lord has not considered all our concerns. But Jesus assures us the Father knows and cares, and He is able and willing to provide every detail of our earthly and spiritual needs. Believe in Him. He is faithful, and He wants us to be worry-free.

 

Let's Pray - Dear Lord, I have made the choice to believe in You, and I simply refuse to worry about anything at all. You are my Shepherd, and I shall want for nothing. Thank you, Sir. Amen.
