Luke 12:25


"'And which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?'"
Luke 12:25

    The answer is . . . no one.
    You can't get taller or solve your problems by worrying. If anything, being worried worsens the situation and it wears you down.
    A lot of people are stressed and sleepless because of worry. They're unable to hope for the future because there are so many things that could go wrong. Some people might think that being worried is logical--that by expecting the worst, it won't hurt as much when it happens. There may even be people who think it's healthy to worry.
    But God says otherwise. He knows that worrying is torturous, and that by worrying, we're denying ourselves hope. Worse than that, we're denying God's promises. He's promised to keep us safe and that everything happens for a good reason. Time and time again, He's told us not to be afraid, but to trust Him.
    God will be with us no matter what we go through. He has a plan that ends in our favor, and He is with us every step of the way. So no matter what happens, we don't have to worry.
    God is with you. Everything will be okay.
