Trust God, Don't Worry

In this Five Minutes with Tony, Tony discusses worry. 
Americans spend so much time in their lives worrying.  We
worry constantly.  We worry about unimportant things, things
we have no control over, things that we can’t change. What can we
do to stop worrying?


Scripture: Can any of you by worrying add a
single moment to your life-span?  Why are you anxious about
clothes? Learn from the way the wild flowers grow. They do not
work or spin. But I tell you that not even Solomon in all
his splendor was clothed like one of them.  Matthew 6:27-29


“Have no anxiety at all, but in everything, by prayer and
petition, with thanksgiving, make your requests known to
God. Then the peace of God that surpasses all understanding
will guard your hearts and minds in Christ
Jesus.”  Philippians 4:6-7


“If God so clothes the grass of the field, which grows today and
is thrown into the oven tomorrow, will he not much more provide
for you, O you of little faith?”  Matthew 6:30


Reflection:  Do you spend time worrying
about things that are out of your control?  Have you ever
worried so much that you made yourself sick?  What do you
think of the idea that faith is the antidote to worry?
