WHAT ME WORRY!
Scripture:
"As a father pities His children,
so the Lord pities those who fear Him.
(Psalm 103:13)
Reflection:
One of the things I remember, as a
child, was my dependence on my
parents. Of course then I certainly
did not see it as dependance.
I depended on them for meals, clothing,
shelter, and certainly love. I assumed that
my parents would provide everything I
needed, and they did.
WE ARE GOD'S CHILDREN, WE ARE HIS
DEPENDENTS.
Jesus said, "Do not worry, saying, 'What
shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or
'What shall we wear.....But seek first the
kingdom of God.....and all these things will
be added to you" (Matthew 6:31, 33)
I believe that it is indeed unfortunate that
worry seems to be an ingrained habit for
most of us. Many of us seem to be
constantly worrying about situations
in our life. Added to this, the war,
with today's economy, with unemployment
among many of us. We have a lot to worry about.
Philippians 4: 6, 7 tells us----
"6 Do not be anxious about anything,
but in every situation, by prayer and
petition, with thanksgiving, present your
requests to God. 7 And the peace of God,
which transcends all understanding, will
guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."
In other words don't be anxious, don't worry, let
God do the worrying! Give Him the burden. He
will take care of you. "Cast all your care upon
Him, for He cares for you." (1 Peter 5:7)
NEVER FORGET: GOD IS BIGGER THAN YOUR
PROBLEMS. WHATEVER WORRIES YOU MAY
HAVE, PUT THEM IN GOD'S HANDS AND LEAVE
THEM THERE!
Prayer:
My Heavenly Father thank You for always being
there. I now give You my worries, I give You my
problems, I put them in Your hands and there I
leave them, through the power of the Holy Spirit.
In Jesus Name AMEN
