~ Psalm 37:25 ~
A worried person sees a problem
and a concerned person solves a problem.”
~ Harold Stephens ~
“Worrying is carrying tomorrow’s load with today’s strength-carrying two days at once. I tis moving into tomorrow ahead of time. Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow, it empties today of its strength.” ~ Corrie ten Boom ~
“If you can’t sleep, then get up and do something instead of lying there worrying. It’s the worry that gets you, not the lack of sleep.” ~ Dale Carnegie ~
“Worry is spiritual short sight.
Its cure is intelligent faith.”
~ Paul Brunton ~
“The more you pray, the less you’ll panic. The more you worship, the less you worry. You’ll feel more patient and less pressured.” ~ Rick Warren ~
“When I look back on all these worries, I remember the story of the old man who said on his deathbed that he had had a lot of trouble in his life, most of which had never happened.” ~ Winston Churchill ~
“If we are worried about the future, then we must look today at the upbringing of children. ~ Gordon C. Hinckley ~

I like the one about worry and concern, that is a new spin to me! These are all good, too. I may record them for our prayer line at church. God gives us the ability to get through each day, not the future, it is too much.

to Glenda…worry is an insult to God! I heard that quote once and so rather than worry or when I get to that state, I stop, say 'okay God, this is yours so it's off my heart and mind. Take it!'and then trustin the process. NO, it is not easy but I spend less time thinking about what I can't control.

Good morning, good Sandra!
I like all the quotes. I was a worrying sort of child and the Lord has lifted that worry and concern. I clung/cling to the knowledge that I am His concern and I can cast my cares upon Him. I'm SO thankful.
I pray you'd sense His angels gathered around you today.

What a lovely treat, as I am up EARLY this morning. What would we be like, Sandra, if we really believed the depth of God's love for us?
God loves, Sandra, too.
Sending my love, as well.
