Nothing is really worth worrying about. Nothing is really worth getting angry or hurt or bitter about. Positively nothing is worth losing your peace of mind over.
These important truths follow logically upon the following fact: you are going to live forever – somewhere. This means that there is plenty of time to get things right again if they have gone wrong. No matter what mistake you may have made, enough prayer will overtake it and cancel it. If those you love seem to be acting foolishly, you can help them with prayer to be wiser, and, meanwhile, if they suffer, it means that kindly nature is teaching them a lesson that they need to learn.
But suppose something awful should happen? Well, what then? Suppose you lost everything and landed in the poorhouse. What then? Think what a wonderful demonstration you could make there, and you would probably learn several valuable lessons there, and, anyway, it would be quite interesting. Suppose the whole universe blew up. What then? When the dust settles, God will still be in business and you will be alive somewhere, ready to carry on.
Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and He shall sustain thee: He shall never suffer the righteous to be moved (Psalm 55:22).
Worry is emotional rust. It eats away at our spiritual structure and weakens our faith with doubt and fear. Especially, we should not worry about things that haven’t happened, and if bad things do happen, worry is not the response that will rise to the challenge. While it is co mforting to know that we will exist for eternity, living happily in the here and now is our daily duty to ourselves, our God and those around us. By turning our attention to God and seeking the divine will in our lives, we ensure that the here and now is filled with joy and gladness. We can also rest assured that tomorrow and all the tomorrow’s will be reflections of God’s power in our lives. Then our spiritual structure will be sound and our faith secured.
Faithfully,
