Worry is Worthless Because God Will Take Care of You Written by Charles Swindoll "My soul takes refuge in You, and in the shadow of Your wings I will take refuge until destruction passes by."    ~ Psalm 57:1 "Jesus said that worry is a complete waste of time and energy. Do we go to bed tonight and fret and fuss because we aren't five feet, eleven inches; but we are only five feet, nine inches. When we wake up in the morning, we are still going to be five feet, nine inches.. "Worry will never make us stretch! And it won't solve the anxiety on our minds either. "Let me be completely candid here. Do you know why we worry? We have a quiet, hidden, love for worry. We enjoy it! When one worry is gone, we replace it with another. There's always a line of worries waiting to get in the door. So as one goes out the back door, we usher in the next one through the front door. We enjoy entertaining them. "Worries are our mental and emotional companions. But Jesus says, in effect, that they are worthless! "Be strong and courageous! Do not tremble or be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go.       ~ Joshua 1:15

"Did you know that worry erases the promises of God from your mind? Jesus implies this when He says, "O men of little faith. Do not be anxious then saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'with what shall we clothe ourselves?'      ~ Matthew 6:31 "The promise of God is that He will not allow His children to beg for bread. He will care for our needs and that's the promise we can claim. Since He took care of our greatest need at Calvary by giving us Christ, then we can be sure He will take care of everything else He considers important for us." ***
