Worry – What ifs.

Proverbs 12 vs. 25 – Worry weighs a person down; an encouraging word cheers a person up.

What if?  Have you ever dealt with what ifs? Scared of what’s going to happen next contemplating every outcome.  Worry is taking the responsibility for something you were never intended to handle.  And the only way to deal with it is to put all your trust in the creator of everything and trust He is in control of your life and to redirect your worries and concerns to someone who can reassure you, giving you an encouraging word, that helps change the situation.  It doesn’t mean that you don’t take the responsibility for something you aren’t handling to well; it just means that you know when you stop and God begins.

If you are not dealing with worry yourself but know someone that is then do as the bible says in proverbs and share an encouraging word with them, and maybe it will help cheer them up.
