Do you sometimes wish you did not worry as much as you currently do? It is true that many people struggle with worry; some to the extent of destroying themselves physically, mentally and socially. Many people are currently totally grounded because of worry. But what does the Word of God say about worry? Consider this – “Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?” (Matthew 6:27, NIV).
The Lord Jesus Christ asked a very important question. “Is worry productive?” Jesus asked, in other words. Can you improve the circumstances of your life by worrying?
The good news is that you can be free of worry; but this is a decision only you can take. This, however, is a decision that many struggle to take – some don’t even consider taking such a decision because they consider worry to be part and parcel of life.
But there indeed is an alternative to worry.
