Anxiousness!

What am I going to do? Where am I going to go? Where will I live? Questions and more questions, seems like we have more of them than we have answers. Which leads to worrying!

Were anxious about money, so we become workaholics ignoring our family!
Were anxious about our children so we smother them
Were anxious about our jobs so we work ourselves out of them

And if these solutions don’t work, we try to mask our feelings by drinking, taking medications, or simply disconnecting from life itself. Finally we come to the realization that nothing works and we are left feeling hopelessly locked in worry.

How can we stop this constant feeling of dread? By realizing that your needs are already met?

Matthew 6:25-34
25 "Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? 26 Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? 27 Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature? 28 So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; 29 and yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. 30 Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? 31 Therefore do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?' 32 For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. 33 But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. 34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.

Put your trust in the person of Jesus Christ who will care for you as His own. When you are focused on His business, He will make sure ALL your needs are met! How can you stop worrying and start this process

Philippians 4:6-7
6 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

Let Go of the worry and Let God be God who supplies all your needs! Everything you don’t have is just another opportunity He wants to show you how much He loves you by giving it to you! Do your part, and He must do His!
