Why Worry?

From the Heart of Nicki Hausman- Leadership Team of Transformed Women

Wake up worrying? Do you do this? I know I have.

So much trouble going on in the world from hurricanes, terrorism, earthquakes, racial division, and COVID 19. It seems the list is endless at times. There are even difficulties closer to home that vie for attention such as illness, family issues, financial strains, and helping others. How can we not wake up in a state of worry? Right? Yet, the Lord asks us to trust Him to take care of everything. We do not need to live with anxiety or stress.

Have you ever wondered what life would be like if you woke up this morning with peace?
Hmmm, let me put that on my list for today.
"Do not worry about:
spouse,
kids,
aging parents,
bills,
deadlines,
government corruption,
status,
lack of opportunity,
job,
unemployment,
location,
health,
the past,
the future,
TODAY!

Philippians 4:6, "Don't worry about anything, but in everything, through prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. 7 And the peace of God, which surpasses every thought, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."

Notice, the peace of God will guard your heart and mind. How amazing! It is good to know that He will guard these things because it appears an impossible task for us alone. Follow the directions; pray to the Lord and petition Him for help. Then have a grateful heart-Thank Him. Thank Him for the past answers to prayer. Thank Him for today's answers in advance. Go ahead. Yes, right now. Make this a daily priority and you will begin to notice the increased peace in your life. 

He hears and answers us.
Be bold and strong.
We serve the Master of the Universe!

Shalom..
