REPLACING WORRY WITH FAITH
How do you
Handle your worry
How do you handle
Your anxiety
We all
Have a multitude
Of worry
In our life
Worry abut health
Worry about money
Worry about broken relationships
We all have
A multitude of worries
A multitude of anxieties
That we
Can do nothing about
Luckily for us
In the Sermon on the Mount
In the 6th chapter
Of Saint Matthew’s Gospel
Jesus tells us
How to handle worry
God has everything
Under control
“Seek first
The Kingdom
of God
And his righteousness
And all those things
( the necessities of life )
Will be given to you as well”
Worry worry everywhere
Everywhere that I turn
Everywhere that I look
Something or someone else
Is coming at me
Like never before
“Do not worry
About tomorrow
For tomorrow
Will worry about itself
Each day
Has trouble enough
Of its own”
So please
Don’t worry
Whatever your troubles
May be
God has everything
Under control
Seek first
The Kingdom
of God
God---and his righteousness
Has it all under control
So give your worries to God
And your anxiety too
And your worry
Will be replaced faith
Replaced by
The peace of God
Which transcends all understanding
Do not worry about tomorrow
For today
Has trouble enough
Of its own
Give all your worries and
anxieties
To God
God will give you peace
God has it ALL
Under control
