Worry is one of Satan’s greatest tools to keep us from living a life of joy and peace through Christ Jesus. We can get so caught up in worrying about tomorrow and all the what-ifs that we fail to see how God is working in our lives and leading us. God commands us to not worry and to trust in Him. We will all face worry, especially in today’s world. Pandemics, job loss, economic troubles, political division, our children’s future…and the true source of comfort can be found in the promises of God. When worry and fear comes, turn to these Bible verses and renew your mind with the truth.

“Dear Lord,
I thank you that I can come to You always for any reason. I’m grateful that when I pray to You, You answer me. Help me to come to You at the beginning of my fears and anxieties instead of waiting until I can’t stand them anymore. The quicker I come to You the better. You want to free me from ALL my fears In Jesus’ Name I pray, Amen.”
