Do not worry

Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, Rejoice. Let your gentleness be known to everyone. The Lord is near. Do not worry about anything, 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 your minds in Christ Jesus.  Finally, beloved, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is pleasing, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence and if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things. Keep on doing the things that you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, and the God of peace will be with you. (Philippians 4:4-9, NRSV)

Is it easy not to worry?

And if you are like me, usually when someone says not to worry, I worry more.

I can always find something to worry about.

And if we are honest with ourselves, we could all never be at a loss for things to worry about.

But we are not supposed to worry.

Because Jesus will always be with us. Does this mean everything will always be wonderful and great.

No. But in everything we can pray and He will always be with us. By not worrying we are focusing on the good, and not the bad.

Focus on His love, and that will get you through.
