Worry Is a Choice

Do you ever find yourself worried about problems beyond your control? Worry is a bad choice. Even worse, worry can affect your health. It's really a bad habit. You may respond by saying, I can't help it. Remember, worry is a choice.

When faced with a problem beyond your control, there is something you can do besides worry. You can pray. No problem is beyond God's control. Unload your problem with him. Prayer is simply talking to God. Pray about your problems.

Take your problem to the Lord in prayer. Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done (Philippians 4:6, NLT). Worry is a choice. Prayer is a better choice.

Take your problem to God in prayer. He's the Father of all who trust in him. He really cares about all of your needs. If you care about the needs of those you love, how much more does your Father in heaven care about your needs?

When you talk to God, don't forget to thank him for all the good things that he has done in your life. Also, thank him in advance for how he will work in your problem for your good and his glory. Worry is a choice, but prayer is a better choice.
