This is an emotion that makes us always see all the bad things that are happening to us at the moment. It also makes us think of how bad things can get. Most of the time we worry about things that will never even happen to us. We worry that we are going to get t sick, get involved in an accident or even die before we accomplish what we want in life. Worry makes our trust in God die. We cannot fully trust in God if we keep on worrying of how bad things can be.
Jesus in the book of Mathew 6:25-34 vividly addressed the issue of worry. He tells us not to worry about a thing. What we should do instead is seek the kingdom of God first. When we do this our father who is in heaven will add to us all that we need and desire. Worry takes thought of tomorrow. What we will eat, dress or many other things we need in the future. Jesus warned us of taking thought of tomorrow for tomorrow shall take care of itself.
Worry only does evil to us. We cannot do anything constructive by worrying. We should therefore quit worrying and take hold of the situation. If it is nothing we can change, just know that God is in control. The bible tells us not to be anxious for anything. By prayer and supplication, we should let our requests be known to God. When we make our requests be made to God, his peace keeps our minds and hearts. We experience peace that no man can understand in Christ Jesus.
