Matthew 6:27 (NKJV) 27 Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?
What are you worrying about today?
Is it your budget and your finances? Is it your loved ones who are lost or have strayed from God? Is it your bills that are past due, as they pile up and the bill collectors call relentlessly?
Maybe it’s none of these, or maybe it’s all of them and others that we didn’t mention. It really doesn’t matter which of them it might be. It doesn’t matter whether it’s something “small” or not, we tend to worry about so many things in life.
Sometimes it seems like we spend more time worrying than not worrying. But God wants us to trust Him with everything, even when those things seem impossible to overcome.
Trials and tough times test us and show us who we are and where our faith lies. When hard times come, do we immediately start trying to figure it all out and sort out the details of how we’re going to fix the problem?
Or do we give God room to move in our situation, resting in Him and doing only those things that He shows us to do? It’s hard to do this at first, but as we let God grow our faith, it becomes easier and easier to lean on Him and trust Him.
Philippians 4:6 (NKJV) 6 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God;
