"Worry Won't Help!"
Luke 12:25-26
Jesus commands us not to worry. But how can we avoid it? Only faith can free us from the anxiety caused by greed and covetousness. It is good to work and plan responsibly; it is bad to dwell on all the ways our planning could go wrong. Worry is pointless because it can't fill any of our needs; worry is foolish because the Creator of the universe loves us and knows what we need. He promises to meet all our real needs but not necessarily all our desires.
QUOTE OF THE DAY:
"The reason why worry kills more people than work is more people worry than work." - Robert Frost
