You are able? Not to be anxious !!!
Run-run from here, run-run from there ... Time is flying! And more and more intensely the man is in a hurry. In the case of a person who is not of his family, he does not stop at his house. From there, anxiety is consequently injected into our veins.
Calm down, leave everything! Someone still remembers that verse that says: "Give your way to the Lord, (Psalm 37: 5) I remember, but at the time of problems and difficulties who does not feel that anxiety on their skin?
No matter who we are, where we live, living anxiously happened to be considered a condition of modern man or a common destiny to which we are all, in some way, hooked. Anxiety appears in our life as a feeling of apprehension, a feeling that something is about to happen, represents a continuous state of alertness and a rush to finish things that we have not yet begun. In this way our Sunday they have a detention on Monday and the person before bedtime already thinks about everything they will have to do when the day dawns. It is the race to leave nothing behind, only our competitors. The holidays are completely calm and festive only in the first days, but then we start to shake or because we feel that we are not doing something we should do,
The behavior is modified and with characteristics linked to the personality of each one, that is to say, aggressive manifestations can occur, fears that become irrational and meaningless, irritation, depression, comility, insomnia and there goes ...
Anxiety becomes a stone on the way to the treatment of some diseases. In the case of cancer, it can substantially reduce the quality of life of patients and their families, and may even favor premature death of the patient. The diagnosis of depression goes to anxiety in 2% of cases and, in the opposite direction, of anxiety for depression in 24% of cases.
This is serious! Could it be worthwhile to live suffering in advance? Is it worth it to waste so much time permanently worrying about our survival, what to wear, what to eat? Jesus, when he was here, affirmed to his disciples: "... do not be anxious about your life, about what you have to eat, or about what you have to wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? "(Matthew 6:25.) Rest and believe, Our God is a God of provision, He never forsaken a child of Him, ever! If we know it well, we know that He never failed, never fails and then, he will never fail! He is the same always!
Changing in children, anxiety is nothing more than "distrust of what God is doing and what He will do." For us it is not enough to ask. We want the answer to the time and, preferably, what we would like to hear. We are immediatists. Only we forget something very important: our time is not like the time of God: "But you, beloved, do not ignore one thing: that one day for the Lord is like A THOUSAND YEARS, and A THOUSAND YEARS like a day." (II Peter 3: 8). We have to understand that the "our time" is wrong, inadequate in relation to the clock of God. We are in a hurry, He does not have, He writes true, and by safer lines still!
Who never heard the popular saying that says: "GOD TAKE, BUT DOES NOT FAIL?" There are people who fill their mouths to say this absurdity. This is a lie! The God we know NEVER TARDED, NEVER BEING BACK, the "never" is absolute. God's hour is perfect!
So that the anxiety does not come upon us, we need to develop joy, to live relaxed, because in the word it affirms: "ALEGREI in the Lord", He is our joy! We must be more tolerant, moderate people and not live by the songs condemning, murmuring, because in that way we will be dominated by anxiety.
Even if the trials are constant, we must live in the dispensation of God's grace, "my grace is enough for you" (1 Cor 12: 9) He did not speak it only for the apostle Paul, He says this to us. unmerited favor, it is the goodness of God himself being dispensed upon us, if the grace of God will sustain us, anxiety will not find a fertile ground to proliferate.
Another thing we need to worry about is the content of our mind. She can not be occupied with bad things and can not be the enemy's workshop. "Our mind must be occupied by good things" all that is true, all that is honest, all that is just, all that is pure, all that is good, all that is of good reputation, if there is some virtue, and if there is any praise, in that they think "- Phil 4: 8. We can not allow bad thoughts to occupy our mind, since they only come to harm our physique, our sleep and steal our peace; let us occupy our mind with nice things, "thinking at all times about the things that are in the .
Anxiety leads us to lose the Christian witness. Jesus is saying that anxiety is characteristic of Gentiles and pagans, of those who do not know God. But a child of God, has the conviction of the love of God and the care of God
