Have you ever worried about stuff that’s out of your control? This past week I started a devotional through the Bible app called “Grow In Prayer!” by Greg Laurie. On the first day Greg says that worry can be a sin, it’s not all the time but can become it, because it’s showing that we have a lack of trust in God. He says that when you worry you are saying:
“God isn’t in control. He isn’t taking care of me in this situation. I’m not trusting in the providence of God.”
“Grow In Prayer!” – Greg Laurie
God does care about us and He is in control. We just need to trust in Him and give our worries to God.
"Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."
- Philippians 4:6-7 NIV
Many things can happen to us or around us. Maybe you are still out of job or have your hours drastically cut because of Covid. Maybe a loved one is sick or a child has turned at from God. No matter what it may be you can always turn to God with trust and prayer. He will be there for you, it may not be in the way you expect but He will be there. I challenge you to turn to God in prayer when worry starts to set in. See how God can help improve your situation through your prayers
God Bless
