Bread for the Journey

Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.
1 Peter 5:7 NIV


Worry is like a rocking chair ~ it creates momentum and gets you nowhere!

We know that...but what can we do about it?  What is the prescription for a worry-free life?

1. We must realize that life is about so much more than food, drink and clothing.  Those things should not be fueling our passions.

2. We need to 'seek God first'...get our priorities in order.  Our part is to 'seek' God'...His part is to provide our quest.

3.  We need to let go and let God provide for our needs. 

I've been thinking about these things since I heard a pastor share a message on this topic awhile back.  Why is it that 3 A.M. seems a perfect time to worry?  I've found it is also the perfect time to pray!  When I awake in the middle of the night...the problems loom bigger than life.  But I have learned that worrying does not produce results.  Prayer does!  

 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness...
and all these things will be given to you as well. 

Therefore do not worry about tomorrow...
for tomorrow will worry about itself. 

Each day has enough trouble of its own.  
Matthew 6:33-34 NIV
