The world is a complicated place. While there is good in the world, it is the not so good parts that usually make the headlines. Whether we turn on the news, open the newspaper, or browse online, there are plenty of stories that can feed our anxiety. The real Good News is that we don't have to let these stories rule our lives!
We can choose how we respond to the world. We can allow it to drag us down, to pull us into a spiral of anxiety. However, we can also choose to stand up and make the world a better place. To improve the conditions in our lives and in the world around us, we need to begin by trusting in God. We need to believe that if we call on Him and cast our anxiety, worry, and fear on Him, that He will help us because He cares for us. It may not be easy to let go, but when we do, we can experience freedom and peace that only God can provide. We can then spread this love and peace to make the world a better place!
Let go of your worry and give your anxiety to God so He can help you make the world a better place!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for caring for me and wanting to help me. Remind me to cast my worry, fear, and anxiety on You so You can help me in my life and allow me to help the world. In Jesus' name I pray, amen.
