Those Anxious Moments

Can all your worries add a single moment to your life? And if worry can’t accomplish a little thing like that, what’s the use of worrying over bigger things?
Luke 12:25-26 NLT

It seems to be in the human nature to worry. And there are those who worry about everything - big and small. You and I both know people who worry about the stupidest things... But what IS worry? The dictionary defines it as giving way to anxiety or unease; allowing one's mind to dwell on difficulty or troubles. So then, by definition, worry is a sin. Yes, a sin. 

Worry is directly opposed to God's Word. Philippians 4:6 NKJV reads, Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God... Worry is NOT trusting that Jesus is always with you, like He said He would be. Read Matthew 28:20b, And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age. If Jesus is with us - and we place our trust in Him - is there any cause to worry?

Prayer:

Father,

           Open our eyes of understanding to recognize and know that You are always with us, and as such, there is no need to worry or be anxious. We CHOOSE to trust You in all things, in all situations, with every breath we breathe. Help us, Father, to always choose Your Truth over what we see or hear. In Jesus' Name we pray. Amen
