Sometimes we get troubled or we are anxious. We see in others worry and fear. We also see discouragement. These feelings could render us ineffective for the kingdom of Christ. We can overcome these feelings by focusing on Christ. It does not matter what circumstances we face because we have Jesus.
In the world worry is a consistent temptation. Jesus spoke of worry in the New Testament. He asked what can worry do for us and how could it add benefit to our lives. Worry cannot add anything good to our lives; however, God does use evil to bring about good ends. Worry cannot add one single hour to our lives.
We must trust and have faith in God. This is the opposite of worrying. Worry means we are not trusting God. Repentance should be used to ask for forgiveness when we worry. God will help us as we trust Him.
