Avoiding Worry (Proverbs 12)
The Bible has a lot to say about worry: "An anxious heart weighs a man down," Proverbs 12. And, yet, if you're like me, you worry frequently. About the economy. Are my kids driving safely? Aging parents, politics, terrorist attacks, what to fix for dinner? Why do we do this? Because we forget that God cares. "You are so much more valuable than birds or flowers and yet God provides for them," Jesus said. Seek first the kingdom and trust him with everything else.
