A dense fog, covering a small city is composed of less than 1 full
glass of water but has the ability to cripple an entire city. This
fog that is made of less than one full glass of water spreads itself
throughout a city impairing the vision of those who can normally see
clearly. Fog has been known to bring traffic to a stand still and
even cause fatal accidents. Fog which is composed of very little
true substance disorients and confuses every individual it comes in
contact with. The fog that we encounter physically in life has a
first cousin named "worry." Worry can affect every aspect of a
person's life when in actuality its only one issue we are really
worried about. This one issue disorients and confuses every other
aspect of your life and before you know it you will become stressed
out to the
max! You spend time at work worrying about your relationship, so
your job performance goes down. You spend time at school worried
about finding a job so your grades slip. You spend time at church
worrying about paying your bills so you miss the word God has for
you. Worry will put a mental traffic jam in your mind that will
become a fatal accident if you don't stop worrying.
Philippians 4:6 "Never worry about anything. Instead, in every
situation let your petitions be made known to God through prayers
and requests, with thanksgiving. "
Stop allowing worry to mentally strangle the life out of you and
take it to the Lord in prayer. Know that he is faithful and your
worrying isn't doing anything to make the situation better its only
spreading, causing a stress to your entire life.
