"Don't Worry"

  It was Jesus who spoke to His disciples, "Do not be worried about your life..." ( Matt. 6:25) "And who of you by being worried can add a single hour to his life?" (Matt. 6:27) "And why are you worried about clothing?" (Matt. 6:28) "Do not worry then..." (Matt. 6:31)
  David penned, "Do not fret; it leads only to evildoing." (Psa. 37:8) Paul wrote, "Be anxious for nothing..." (Phil. 4:6)
  What are you doing with these inspired words from God? What kept Jesus from worry? That's the power He invites us to share in with Him. If He spoke and taught, "Don't worry", then don't worry. But you can't help it you say? What are you seeking first when worry comes? His righteousness or something else? Are you seeking Him first or your worry first? Answer these questions, look to Jesus and listen to His word seeking His path and you will find how to overcome your worry. Otherwise, you will worry!
