Worrying does not add anything to our life. If anything it takes away. Worry eats up your time, it erodes your peace, it drains your energy. 

So why is it that knowing this we still do it? We know it can debilitate us and our strength and we still do it. We know we can lose minutes, hours, days and yes even years of our lives worrying rather than living. 
In Matthew 6:25-34 Jesus is talking to the people and my summarization of it is him saying why are you worried about what you are gonna eat or wear?  Why are you worried about things that can change at a moments notice? Pray about everything and then just live. Focus on your relationship with God and you will see the rest fall in place. 

But verse 34 is what hit home for me this week: 34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.

You wanna know something? Worry changes nothing. It adds nothing. You know what else? When tomorrow comes there will be something else to worry about. So let us push worry aside and remind ourselves to present everything to God, move forward and live!
