Worrying

I know that living in the time we live in every day comes with its own set of worries and trials but we need to keep our eye on Christ and remember that He is in control of our lives. Jesus teaches on this very subject in Matthew 6:25-34 If you can read the prior verses because I will only be touching on a few like Matthew 6:25 "Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing?" and Matthew 6:34 "Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble." Now Jesus is not telling us to go live a care free and reckless life, but just not to worry about the things that we cannot control. Don't be stressed about anything, I know that that’s a hard one to cope with because I stress out over the smallest of things. In a recent study over 11 million Americans suffer from unhealthy levels of stress, unhealthy meaning some people having heart attacks and strokes. So just remember God is in control of your life and when a stressful situation comes about look at it as an opportunity to learn something.
