Matthew 6:31-32
Today’s verses are Jesus talking. Verse 31 is Him summarizing some of the things He said before the verses we are writing. Worry is not trusting God. I’m going to say that again, worry is not trusting God. We need to do everything in our power to stop worrying.
My Granny loved Jesus but she worried a lot. Her oldest daughter picked up the habit, but thankfully, my mom didn’t end up a worry wart, as they are called. It’s one thing for a non-Christian to worry. They really don’t have anywhere to put their faith. But we Christians need to re-wire our brains & STOP worrying.
One way to do this is by turning your worries into prayers. When something pops up & you get too focused on it so you start to worry… stop! IMMEDIATELY turn it into a prayer. This might take awhile, but you can retrain your brain with this method. You turn to God & trust HIM instead of letting worry steal from you! This will grow your trust with Him as you allow Him to help you and as He answers your prayers.
