Don’t Worry, Be Happy: It’s Easier than You Think to Do

Many remember these words made popular by the song. Though its sentiment is simple, it is something that is available to the Christian. It is interesting to note that the Christian is in connection with God, the creator and sustainer of all things.

However, we sometimes act as if there is no God in heaven and walk around in worry and defeat. We must remember that God is able to give us peace in the midst of unfavorable circumstances. We can still have joy even when surrounded by pain.

Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you. 1 Peter 5:7 (KJV)

If we remember to cast our cares upon Him, we will not worry, but walk in peace and contentment. Today, ask God for His grace and strength to overcome worry and fear.  If we know Him, we don’t have to worry and fret because He loves us and cares for us. Don’t Worry Be Happy!

Prayer of the Week:

“Lord, I thank you for your blessings. On this day, I make special mention of your goodness and kindness. I am grateful for all things. Amen”
