Why Worry?

The bible says which of you by worrying can increase your stature.

Why do we worry then? We worry because we don't believe God is able to
provide for all our needs. We worry because we don't think God is that good
to us. We worry because of the cares of the world.

The devil will always try to distract us from the love of God and His
written word. He will always try to deceive us into believing we have to
get our act together inorder to be right with God. He will gum us to death,
if we allow him to.

The work at the cross some two thousand years ago is completely complete!
There is nothing we do now to be righteous. For it had been accomplished by
Jesus at the cross. Our "role" is to believe God will always see us through
in our times of need. He may seem to be late but God is always on time. His
timing is always perfect.

The bible says to seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and
all these things that the gentiles seek He will add to us. What's seeking
the kingdom of God then? It is to be peaceful and joyous in the Holy
Spirit. It is knowing that we are the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus.

When we are restful in the Holy Spirit, no evil formed shall come near us
nor any plague come near our dwellings. Knowing that we are right with God
through Jesus' finished work bring joy to body, soul and Spirit.

When we know that we know that God will always take care of us regardless
of our actions, we don't have to worry! We can cast all our cares upon
Jesus and lay our burden at His feet for He cares and His yoke is easy and
His burden is light.

When we are faced with a BIG challenge in our lives, knowing that God will
take care of the challenge will give us shalom. Why worry when we can
instead cast every care upon God? Believe by faith. With patience and
preserverance, things will always turn out for our good in His perfect
timing. Hallelujah!
