JOURNAL/REPLACING WORRY WITH FAITH




“YOU are anxious and WORRIED about many things-THERE IS ONLY one thing NEEDED”
Luke 10:36


In the famous story of Martha and Mary-Jesus teaches us a thing or two about MISPLACED WORRY-
Martha and Mary are two sisters RECEIVING Jesus and the apostles at their house for a dinner party


Martha is concerned and going about the SERVING of the dinner-and Mary is just sitting at Jesus' feet hanging on his EVERY word-Martha complains to Jesus and Jesus has a SURPRISING RESPONSE


“ONLY ONE THING is needed-Mary has CHOSEN the better part-and it will NOT be taken away from her” Luke 10:42


Dear Lord -we pray that as we GO ABOUT living our lives that we KEEP you and THE WORD of God FIRST in our lives-it is STILL the one thing that is NEEDED-if we do this-everything else in our lives will FALL into place


it is a GREAT DAY to be ALIVE in GOD'S LOVE for us-and a great day to BEGIN to REPLACE misguided worry with FAITH

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 6^th 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
