A Testamony for the Worrier

Check out Mathew ch 6 v 25 and Ch 6V 34
 Worry is one of the devils greatest weapons. It will steal your sleep, your joy your contentment and your happiness. We can become so rapped up in worry about tomorrow or even about yesterday that we never find peace today! And whats so ridiculous is that we often worry about things that will never happen!
Statistics are as follows 40% of people worry about things that never happen,30% concerns things that cant be changed, 12% worry about criticism that is mostly untrue, and 10% relate to health and that can worsen when you worry. ONLY 8% are Legitimate concerns that we can do something about!
 Worry is like putting your car or truck in neutral and revving the engine. Its burns gas but it doesn't get you any where.
 Worry exhibits a lack of trust in God. Worry says Ive got a problem and I don't think God can take care of me through it. Worry effects our relationship's.One of my daughters , Taunya, not to long ago told me  that when I was raising the children I drove her crazy When I was worrying about something I would walk through the house and take deep breaths and sigh..In turn it would upset her as she knew I was troubled &
 it probably effected the rest of the kids too. Knowing a family member is worrying effects the whole family and our relationship with others. I could not express happiness or joy in the Lord when I was worrying.I was dead in my Testimony. Its interesting to note that the word worry comes from an Anglo- Saxon word meaning to choke or strangle.
 How do we concur this device of the devil? The Bible teaches us to live one day at a time,don't borrow tomorrows problems today.Don't do the WHAT IF"s just deal with the WHAT IS ! The most important thing is your salvation and your walk with the Lord.
Do I worry NO, I could but it wont accomplish anything and I don't want to give Satan the opportunity to steal my peace and joy in the Lord.

Prov ch 3 V 5&6 Stated Trust in the lord with all your heart, lean not on your own understanding,in all your ways acknowledge him and he will make your paths straight!         Until next time may God Keep you in his peace !
