Pray more, worry less
Philippians 4: 4-7 "Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I say, Rejoice! Let your gentleness be known to all men. The Lord is near. Be anxious for nothing, but be present your requests to God in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. "
A study on the things which people care more, revealed that 40% of people worry about things that never happen. Another 30% of people worry about things that can not be changed to worry about them. 12% of the concerns are unwarranted concerns about health problems. Another 10% of all the worries are about insignificant things, things like: I turned off the lights? Did I feed the dog?
Give the care of the Lord, Now, if you're doing the math, that means that 92% of the things we worry not worth the emotional effort. So why worry? 1 Peter 5: 7 "Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may lift you up in due time; Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. "
Taking something to be on you and throw up someone else requires action. It is exactly what God asks us to do with our afanes. Rather than put up with them ourselves, asks us to do something, not be we worry for them, but to let on it and not just a few travails, only the most important, but ALL OUR CARES. "ALL YOUR CARES ABOUT ECHA him because he cares for you" says the Word. In addition, elsewhere it says:
The writer, Stanley Jones said: "The concern is the interest we pay today for the problems that will arise in the morning." So the next time the concern touch to your door, it would be good to remember that God takes no surprise, and that you can always lean on Him through prayer.
Put all your cares and burdens on Him. God cares for us. As you can see, God is not waiting to punish you water it. His deep desire is to connect with you and accompany you through the ups and downs of life. Psalm 55:22 "Cast your burden on the Lord and he will sustain you; He shall never suffer the righteous. "
