LET THE LORD DO THE WORRYING!
The two greatest sources of fear & worry are the past & the future--remorse over the past, or fear of the future--& God's Word forbids us to worry about either! If you know the Lord, then you're His child, & you don't have ANYTHING to worry about. Worry is a sign of fear, & fear is not faith. "Fear hath torment" (1Jn.4:18), & lack of faith can be a terrible, frightening thing. But faith in God, trust in God, gives you a feeling of rest of body, peace of mind, contentment of heart & spiritual well-being. It's faith that keeps you from worry. It's faith that keeps out fear. Jesus said, "Let NOT your heart be troubled, ye believe in God, believe also in Me." (Jn.14:1) The beginning of faith is the end of worry! If you're trusting the Lord, you know He's going to take care of you & you don't have to worry about anything! "God hath NOT given us the spirit of FEAR, but of POWER, & of LOVE, & of a SOUND MIND!" (2Tim.1:7) So commit your way, your life, your mind, your thoughts, your time--your EVERYTHING--to the LORD! "Cast thy burden upon the LORD & HE shall sustain thee!" (Psa.55:22) His shoulders are broad enough to carry ANY load!
