Today’s question is from Luke 12:25
We all have days when we become anxious about something in our life. Writing a test, playing a solo in front of an audience, seeing the doctor, or going on a big trip can cause stress. That is natural. However, letting worry gain control over our lives is not what God intended for us. He wants us to give him all our worries. Martin Luther once said, “Pray, and let God worry.” Carrying worry is like having a huge weight on our shoulders. We must learn to lift that weight off and hand it over to God saying, “Lord, I have this big problem that has been bothering me. You said I should cast my cares on you? Well, Lord, here’s a big one. You handle it.” Whenever you get caught up in worry, remember that God wants you to give him your problems. He will take care of them. Then you can live your days in happiness. Each morning you can wake up with a smile on your face and say, “This is the day the Lord has made. I will rejoice and be glad in it!”
A verse to remember:
“Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe also in me.
John 14:1
