Worry exposed

Worry, which wearies and wears out, both warriors and winners, holds kings, nobles, aristocrats, bourgeoisie, vassals and peasants with no discrimination.

We must treat it as persona non grata everywhere it raises its ugly head. While singles worry about their wasting romantic lives, we all usually worry about the things we said and what we forgot to say, things we did and what we failed to do, bulges, the bald and even our dark or for others too light complexions, being married and unmarried are worst nightmares for some.

It amazes me though to find people, with a full set of legs worried about the number of shoes while the double-leg amputee, doesn’t complain but wakes up every day saying, “This is the day that the Lord has made. I will rejoice and be glad in it”.

In order to deal a decisive and destructive, worry-arresting and decimating blow, you have to get hold of the following secrets to worry your worries:

Worrying is useless

Matthew 6:27. It has never solved a single problem, never eased a single burden of the soul, never dried a single tear, it has never provided even a single answer ever, dear friends. It only shrinks your confidence and inflates your problems beyond size.

Don’t worry about tomorrow

It is in the hands of God, the past is history, while the future is the mystery.

Don’t worry about things you can change

Just go ahead and change them, those you can’t change, accept and be at peace with the reality.

Learn to see good in bad

See the triumph in trouble, love in hate, success in failure, healing in sickness and pleasure inside pressure.

Install the peace of God in your heart by making peace with God

Those who have peace with God always bask under the shadow of peace of God (Phil 4:6-8).

Believe the God of the Bible and

read it

Remember those who carry a worn-out and tattered Bible that’s falling apart, have a life that is not (John 14:1, Isaiah 43:2).

Know that nobody is born a “have it all”

What you have, many people don’t have and yes, what they have you might not have. The bottom line is you are all equal and the same.

Worrying is a sin

It’s doubt in God and faith in the devil.
