    Are you straining and worrying over things you can’t change or do anything about? Are you aware that God is knowledgeable of your situation? How is worrying going to help you change one thing for the better? It won’t! That’s why Jesus commanded you, “Don’t worry, for your heavenly Father knows you have need of these things.”

    Good reminder, especially with being home so much lately and seeing all the things we “need” or need to get done. None of it is worth being anxious about.

    I feel like this is me everyday lol. I agree, worrying doesn’t get anything done and it in fact slows me down to getting stuff done! I’ve learned that during grad school I would worry less and be more productive at night.. I think it’s because I’m much more calm at night than I am during the day. I kind of associate day = labor and night = relax & sleep. So eventually I end up doing some work at night because my mind is more calm and in a relaxed state than I am during the day hah! Nowadays I just take each task and focus on it before worrying about the next “thing” I need to do.

      Haha…God’s word makes sense in our everyday living. You sometimes wonder why Jesus said some of the cool things he said and then you look at your life and you realize, oh! that makes sense. He said “none of us can add one minute to our lives by worrying.” So true!
