He who watches over you will neither
slumber nor sleep. Psalm 121:3,4
Is worry really wrong? Who would deny
that there is plenty to worry about – the state of the economy, our health, the
domestic problem including feeding the hungry and a lot of other things.
“it’s my nature to worry – that’s the
way God made me! I just can’t help it,” people say, and “I am not always known
by the smoothness of my brow.” I admit that some may have more of a biological
tendency to worry than do others, but can we put the blame on our genetic code
to let us off the hook?”
Jesus had a lot to say about this
subject in the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5 to 7) where He talked about the
birds which are fed by our Heavenly Father. He chided the disciples for
worrying about their clothes and food. In this passage, Jesus considered worry
to be wrong because of the power of His Heavenly Father to provide for His
children.
Paul didn’t mince words either when
he said, “Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and
petition, with thanksgiving, present your request to God” (Philippians 4:6).
So, if God says I should not worry,
then there must be a solution to this problem. Simply put, it is learning to
put into His hands what we cannot change, and learning more about Him gives us
confidence that He is more than able to take care of the storms in our life.
Remind yourself that He who creates
our world neither slumbers nor sleeps. He’ll take the night shift and the day
shift to follow. He never fails.
God Bless Us..
