Do Not Worry

My precious mother always said, "Do not worry, worrying was a sin. We were to pray."

Our lives are filled with stress and anxiety every day. It's called LIFE. God does not want us to be stressed and worried; it only complicates the situation. Worry divides our mind and draws our focus away from God, His faithfulness, and His righteousness. We are also saying that God cannot be trusted to take care of our situation or provide what we need.

So how do we not worry? When the temptation of worrying comes, it is critical that we do not go there. We need to say, "NO immediately! I am committing this to God. I refuse to let it take over my thoughts. I will seek God in this and will trust Him in everything I am concerned about."

Philippians 4:6 says, "Be careful for nothing; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be known unto God."

Bottom line. Do not worry about anything instead pray about everything.

Love in Christ,
Tera
