“Continue praying, keeping alert, and always thanking God.”Colossians 4:2
Two words summarize Christ’s opinion of worry: irrelevant and irreverent.
“Can all your worries add a single moment to your life? Of course not” (Matt. 6:27 NLT).
Worry is irrelevant. It altars nothing.
When was the last time you solved a problem by worrying about it? Imagine someone saying, “I got behind in my bills, so I resolved to worry my way out of debt. And, you know, it worked! A few sleepless nights, a day of puking and hand wringing. I yelled at my kids and took some pills, and—glory to worry—money appeared on my desk.”
It doesn’t happen! Worry changes nothing. You don’t add one day to your life or one bit of life to your day by worrying. Your anxiety earns you heartburn, nothing more…
Ninety-two percent of our worries are needless! Not only is worry irrelevant doing nothing; worry is irreverent, distrusting God.
