Choose To Bring Your Worries And Anxieties to God

Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. –

Philippians 4:6

Servant Leadership Evangelist Dr. Madana Kumar recently explained the reasons people worry. He stated that the ignorant worry because they do not know enough and the knowledgeable worry because they know too much. The rich worry because they are afraid of losing what they have and the poor worry because they do not have enough. The old worry because they are facing death while the young worry because they are facing life. Parents worry about the children they have and childless couples worry about the children they do not have. And the list goes on. You could probably add a few of your own.

Worry may be a normal part of the human condition but it is not what God wants for His children. He has given you the antidote to the poison of worry – His peace. You can choose to bring your worries and anxieties to God. There is nothing too small or too great for Him. He asks you to cast your cares upon Him. Why? Because He cares for you. He loves you. He waits for you. And He tells you to be thankful when you turn things that concern you over to Him. Rejoice in His love for you today.
