Worry is a substitute for faith. Worry does for some people what faith does for others
In a Peanuts cartoon, Linus was talking to Charlie Brown and observed: "I guess it's wrong always to be worrying about tomorrow. Maybe we should think only about today." Charlie Brown replied, "No, that's giving up. I'm still hoping that yesterday will get better."
What we need to is to focus our attention on the things that are really important, our families, for example. Many of us are more fortunate that we deserve with our families. We've got great kids though they may get on our nerves from time to time. Weather or not they still live at home We may not live in Beverly Hills or the Trump Tower, but our house is warm and full of God's grace. And most important, we need to focus on our relationship with ourselves, our society and the creator .
Better it is to be of an humble spirit with the lowly, than to divide the spoil with the proud Proverbs 16:
Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength (Deut. 6:5).
For there is no distinction: for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. Romans 3:22b-23 Excuses for sinning entered the world when Adam blamed Eve, and Eve blamed the snake. Since that first passing-of-the-buck, things haven’t changed all that much
Let no one deceive himself. If anyone among you thinks that he is wise in this age, let him become a fool that he may become wise. 1 Corinthians 3:18
Reaching out to needy children,Showing them our love and care,Is one way that God can use usTo bring hope in their despair. —Sper
Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them. —Mark 10:14
