"Consider the lilies of the field........."
Have you ever been told not to worry? Of course you have. All of us know that worry doesn't do a bit of good. Worrying doesn't change the outcome of anything....ever. So why do we continue to do it?
Many folks choose to move to a Retirement Community, to reduce the number of things that they have to worry about. No more utility bills. No more interior or exterior items to buy, repair or maintain. Their apartments are cleaned by our staff. We run bus shuttles everywhere to everything. Many of our residents have sold their cars. Therefore, no more insurance bills, oil changes, gasoline station runs or car payments. No worrying about hail damage or stolen vehicles. When they fall, and falls are plentiful, we are there to pick them up. We love them and we take good care of them.
But, they continue to worry. It's so hard to stop worrying. I seriously believe that we must love to worry.
Every day, I remind people not to worry. Don't worry about the weather. Don't worry about money. Don't worry about your memory, or lack of.
We are in charge of so little. Do what you can do, just don't bother to worry. Let it all go.
Let go and let God!
Holy Lord: I want to turn all of my worry over to you. Show me how. I must Trust and Obey.
