THE 27th OF JUNE

NOTHING GOOD COMES FROM BEING WORRIED OR ANXIOUS

“So do not worry or be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will have worries and anxieties of its own. Sufficient for each day is its own trouble.” – Matthew 6:34

Our Lord pointed out something very important in the above verse. Jesus says that worry will never diminish true problems. The positive effect produced by all our worries is zero. But the negative effects of worrying may cost us a lot. Whenever we choose to worry on a daily basis, we get sick and lack faith. The level of our health and faith are directly related to the level of our doubt and worries.

To worry, means to be afraid of something that may never happen. To have faith, means to trust and expect something good and by believing for it, God can make it happen. Every day has its own set of problems that we may worry or be anxious about. It is up to us to choose to trust God to make something good to come out of a bad situation and not fall into worry and fear.

We live in a fallen world, where the evil and wicked people can cause us trouble, even when they do not aim at us directly, their bad choices simply may affect us. The more faith we have, the less we worry and the clearer we may hear God’s advice about how to handle the situation and find our way out.

SUGGESTED PRAYER

Thank You Lord Jesus for this wonderful piece of advice! My life is so much better since I have learned that worrying does no good and solves no problems, instead it may cause me headaches, heart problems and so much more. Dear Father, please help me remember to always choose to trust You and pay attention to Your directions. Thank You Holy Spirit for all Your help and support, no matter what I am going through! You truly are the perfect Helper! In the Name of Jesus I pray. Amen
