GIVE UP WORRY: TRUST GOD
MEMORY VERSE: “Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God” (PHILIPPIANS 4:6).
The origin of the word “Worry” will surprise you. It comes from an old English word “Wrygan”, which means “to strangle”, “to seize by the throat”. And that, exactly, is what worry does. It chokes the mind and clouds your reasoning. Worry puts your brain in a pressure cooker and turns on the heat. That is why the Apostle exhorts believers to “Be careful for nothing”. Is Paul advocating a careless and irresponsible lifestyle? Far from it! He is counselling us to transfer our worries to God through prayer.
Winston Churchill led Britain through the horrors of World War II,_ and he had lots of things to worry about. He later said, “When I look back on all these worries, I remember the story of an old man who said on his deathbed that he had had a lot of trouble in his life, most of which had never happened.”
Worry makes you hurry into action, and later, you will feel sorry for your action. So, quit worrying and throw your past, present and future into God’s mighty hand. You will surely be safe, not sorry.
QUOTE: Worry makes you hurry into action.
CHALLENGE: Worrying does not solve problems.
PRAYER: Lord, I cast all my cares upon you
