Jesus said, "The eye is the lamp of the body. So if your eye is single
your whole body with will be full of light. But if your eye is unhealthy,
your whole body will be full of darkness, if then the light in you is
darkness, how great is the darkness! No man can serve two masters; for a
slave will either hate the one and love the other. You can't serve God and
problems." Matthew 6:22-24
Ohhhh, this is a very touchy subject with me for I God tests me ALOT with this!
Basically, if I worry, I am choosing to say I don't trust God. I don't have faith in Him that He will take care of the situation (s). I have to ask myself ... "Don't you think that God KNOWS what He is doing for He created the heavens & the Earth in 6 days and rested on the 7th, don't you think He cares about you enough that He can also MANAGE your life too????"
(These are things I think in my mind when I question my faith in God.) Then I remember decisions I have made on my "own"... and how I have messed things up and had to ask God to help me "fix" things afterwards. Then, I ask God for open doors/windows and to guide me in the direction He WANTS me to be going in. I ask God to give me PEACE in my heart, and I make a CHOICE that ALL WILL BE WELL for the Creator of ALL has HIS HAND on my life.
Hopes this helps you...this is just a bit of how I view my own worry in life. God DOES care about EVERY AREA of your life!
Thanks Jackie ....Funny how much it helps when we see others having the same problems at times and hearing what they do that you can apply to your own life ... I trust God totally, just my human side that worries :( ...I think it is my testing too...thanks for your honest and helpful answer this am ..
I AM GONNA BE WORRY FREE :)
