Day 7

You know what it’s like to live in constant worry, don’t you?..
You feel uptight, your stomach seems tied in knots, and your whole body is tense..
But you don’t have to live that way. Anything that’s learned can be unlearned. It’s time to start unlearning worry!..
God has promised to take care of you; that’s His job, not yours..
The starting point to letting go of worry is to maintain this humble attitude: “God is God, and I am not.”..
When you understand this important truth, worry will start to disappear from your life..
Anytime you worry, it reveals a particular area of your life where you have not given God first place..
That’s because any part of your life where God is not in control is going to be a source of insecurity and worry..
So what can you do about that?..
Welcome Jesus into your life’s “house.” Give him access to all the aspects of your life—the living room, the bedroom, the kitchen, and even all the closets and every secret area. He already knows what’s in there..
In fact, God knows your needs better than you do. You have needs you’re not even aware of—but none of them will surprise God..
“…..Your heavenly Father already knows perfectly well that you need them, and He will give them to you if you give Him first place in your life and live as He wants you to”. (Matthew 6:32-33)
When you make Jesus Christ number one in every area of your life, it simplifies your priorities and gives you a lot less to worry about..
What “rooms” of your life do you tend to try to control yourself, causing you to worry more?..
If God loved you enough to die for you while you were still a sinner, He certainly loves you enough to feed you, lead you, and meet whatever need you have today..
Start every day by reminding yourself that God is good..
As you begin every day by trusting God and submitting to Him, you’ll start to see your worries fall away..
““Do not be worried and upset,” Jesus told them. “Believe in God and believe also in Me……” (John 14:1)
