Why do we worry???  Why do I worry???  I went to Access tonight.  It was a great worship service with a great message.  I took some notes and thought I would share them with you.


Has your worry ever done you any good?
As a rule, men worry more about what they can't see then what they can see - Julius Ceaser

What we worry about:
Weight and appearance
Family
Money
Employment
Car troubles
Death
Health

We all worry about the same stuff.
When we worry, we are making a choice to forfeit our peace.

Phill 4:6-7. Anxious- Greek- to pull in opposing directions. Literally rips your life apart at the seams.
James 1:8. When you worry you are unstable emotionally, physically and spiritually.

Worry is a step into the direction of depression Proverbs 12:25

Worry is a sin of the heart because when you worry, you basically are saying that God is a liar. Romans 8:28
Worry is us telling God that we don't trust him. We choose to take that burden back and try to handle it ourselves.

Escape? Pray about everything!
Luke 18:1. Worry about nothing and pray about everything.

Rejoice in everything
Hebrews 13:5. We are not alone in our trials
We can rejoice in the fact that the situation we are in doesn't take him by surprise.

We should exchange our worries to God for peace.

Peace- Greek- to bring together
Isaiah 26:3-4
Psalm 55:22
