Don’t Worry, Be Happy!

Stop worrying!

I’ve found time and again, scripture teaches us time and again to NOT worry!

In His Sermon on the Mount, Christ teaches us to NOT worry about tomorrow, what we will eat or what we will wear. And, someone once said the Bible tells us 365 times “Do not be afraid” , “Do not fear” and we could say, “Do not worry” – that’s one time for each day of the year.

We hear about “best practices” in the workplace and in other areas. Let us add this to our best practices in faith.

Do not worry. Turn it over to God. Put it in His hands. Let Him deal with it. And, do not worry.

That’s basically, in a way, what Jesus was telling Martha [paraphrased], “Martha, Martha, do not worry. Mary knows the most important thing is not what you will eat, or wear, but, rather, having a relationship with Me [Jesus]”.

If you’re worrying, the devil’s probably got ahold of you.

Why? Because God tells us NOT to worry but it is the devil’s desire to destroy us. So, he will aim, among other things, to cause us to worry, and to fear.
Don’t fall for it.

Pray about it, turn it over to God, then, let it go.

Blessings.
