Worry

Reading through the Bible last night I came across seven reasons not to worry from Matthew. I appreciate that the Lord let me to this reading, I need to be reminded from time to time that our Lord commands us not to worry.

6-25...The same God who created life in you can be trusted with the details of your life.
6:26...Worrying about the future hampers your efforts for today.
6:27...Worrying is more harmful than helpful.
6:28-30...God does not ignore those who depend on him.
6:31, 32...Worrying shows a lack of faith in and understanding of God.
6:33...Worrying keeps us from real challenges God wants us to pursue.
6:34...Living one day at a time keeps us from being consumed with worry.
