by Pastor Chuck SwindollScriptures: Isaiah 50:10
Let's get six words clearly fixed in our minds. These six words form the foundation of God's therapeutic process for all worrywarts. WORRY ABOUT NOTHING, PRAY ABOUT EVERYTHING. What qualifies as a worry? Anything that drains your tank of joy.
Let's get six words clearly fixed in our minds. These six words form the foundation of God's therapeutic process for all worrywarts.
WORRY ABOUT NOTHING,
PRAY ABOUT EVERYTHING
What qualifies as a worry? Anything that drains your tank of joy—something you cannot change, something you are not responsible for, something you are unable to control, something (or someone) that frightens and torments you, agitates you, keeps you awake when you should be asleep.
All of that now needs to be switched from your worry list to your prayer list. Give each worry—one by one—to God . . . .
Tell Him you will no longer keep your anxiety to yourself . . . .
The more you practice giving your mental burdens to the Lord, the more exciting it gets to see how God will handle the things that are impossible for you to do anything about.
