EXCESSIVE CONCERN. “Therefore do not worry about tomorrow,for tomorrow will worry about itself.Each day has enough trouble of its own”(Matthew 6:34) ‘Many people like to sit and ruminate over their problems.Life has overwhelming responsibilities and is very demanding.Sometimes our priorities become distorted and we lose hope.Because of insufficient faith,worry flourishes in this chaotic breeding-ground. The first step to overcome worry is to clearly identify its cause.Continuous worry crushes your heart and mind,bringing disastrous results. Outline your worries by writing them down—clearly and simply—on a piece of paper.Then look at them calmly,pray about them and scale them down to their real size.Prayerfully confirm that God is in control of the situation that has developed and that worry will no longer affect your tranquility and peace of mind. If you take this creative step today,you will discover that you are prohibiting worry and anxiety from clouding your future.The secret is to carry your burdens to God in prayer.And that means being conscious of Christ’s presence so that He is more real to you than your worries.Christ is all-sufficient for our needs,today and tomorrow.’
