DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT! 4

Matthew 6:27 Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?

A high school basketball coach was having a really bad season.  None of the taller boys in school had a desire to play on the team and his entire team was short.  After a really bad loss someone asked him if he felt it was his fault as a coach that they were losing. His answer was, "I'm not sure, but no matter how much I try and how much I coach I can't make them grow one inch."  You can't worry yourself one inch taller either.

 

There are a lot of things you can't worry yourself out of or in to.  You can't worry yourself out of debt. You can not worry yourself into a healthy condition, as a matter of fact, worry is detrimental to your good health.

 

I like the old saying, "Worry is like rocking in a rocking chair, even though it keeps you busy it is not getting you any where."

A lot of time is spent in worrying that could be spent in a much more productive way.  Most of the things we worry about never happen.  The thigs that do happen are going to happen whether we worry about them or not.

 

Instead of worrying why not just focus on trying to fulfill the purpose of God in your life.  Focus on Him and focus your energies on doing His will.  You won't even think about the trivial things you usually worry about when you learn to do this.
