Worry

What is worry? It is the anxious care that comes from assuming a responsibility which we are incapable of discharging. Worry is an integral part of life. Everyone lives in the state of worry at various times every day. We cannot read the news on social media or television without having some form of mental anguish. People protest over everything and often those events turn into violence. Politicians on the local, state and national level appear angry at each other and we worry if any law can be passed. God has given us an answer; “Take no thought for your life,” Don’t give way to anxious care concerning your life. “Let not your heart be troubled.” The apostle Paul in dealing with the subject, said, “Be careful (anxious) for nothing.” Peter in speaking to the same problem said, “Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.” The bible speaks of this subject specifically to Christians. Christ understands our feeling, He said, “I will not leave you comfortless.” When we live in the realm of worry it is an outward sign of a spiritual heart problem. What are you worrying about today? How anxious are you concerning all the issues of life? Turn it all over to Christ and you will find the peace necessary for eternal life and daily life.
