“Can all your worries add a single moment to your life? Of course not” (Matthew 6:27 NLT).
We’ve read all the statistics. We’ve heard about the studies. We personally know it to be true. And yet, we continue to worry.
Why do we do it? Why do we waste away minutes, hours, days and months of our lives worrying? Why do we put all the energy, time and effort into something that leaves us worn out and with less time on our hands than we had prior?
What is it, really, that we do not think God is capable of handling?
What area of our lives do we believe He doesn’t care to be involved?
In what matters do we consider His hands to be tied?
Who in our life do we deem unreachable by the Creator, the Savior, the God of the universe?
Because isn’t that what worry is—considering our God incapable?
