WHAT ARE YOU WORRIED ABOUT?

I heard about a patient in a mental hospital who was holding his ear close
to the wall, listening intently. The attendant finally approached. "Shh!"
whispered the patient, beckoning him over. The attendant pressed his ear to
the wall for a long time. "I can't hear a thing," he said. "I know," replied
the patient, "it's been like that all day!"

Have you ever worried so much about things going wrong that you begin to
worry when everything goes right? Worry probably does more than anything
else to keep us from having peace of mind.

Psychologists (with nothing better to do) have come up with some statistics
about our worries. They say that 40% of the things we worry about never
happen, 30% of the things we worry about have already happened (and thus
can't be changed), 12% of our worries focus on health concerns, and 10% of
our worries are over insignificant things.

That means that over 80% of our worries are about things which are
unimportant, or that we have absolutely no control over.

So, what have you been worrying about lately?  The scriptures tell us,
"Don't be anxious, don't worry about anything, but trust in God with
everything.  He will give you his peace about every situation you face." 

"Be anxious for nothing, but in every thing by prayer and supplication with
thanksgiving, let your requests be made known unto God.  And the peace of
God, which passes all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds
through Christ Jesus." (Philippians 4:6-7)

Don't be anxious.  Stop worrying.  Have a great day!
