Worry Much?

1/31/2024

0 Comments

 
Many of us start with high hopes for our new year but before the month is out worry rears its ugly head. “Will I meet my goals I set, what will others think of me if I don’t meet those goals, how will I succeed this year with what little finances I have?” We continue to let worry and anxiety build and fester while scripture continuously tells us not to worry (Matthew 6:31, Philippians 4:6). Why is that? Too often we let the worries of the world move and shift us instead of remaining steadfast in our daily walk with the Lord and his character. Isaiah 26:3-4 says, “You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you. Trust in the Lord forever, for the Lord, the Lord himself, is the Rock eternal.” We must choose to daily die to ourselves and our worry and choose to walk in the surety of an eternal God who knows us intimately enough to take care of every need. Even those of us in “full time ministry” get caught up in details that the Lord always takes care of, “am I doing ministry right, am I successful enough, are we partnering well, will things continue 20 years after I’m gone?” Let us all daily choose to set our minds on him as he carries us through thick and thin, and remember what Keith Green sang back in the day, “He’ll take care of the rest”.
