WHERE DOES WORRY TAKE US?

When created in His image and entrusted a unique responsibility of tending and keeping the earth, God wanted us to depend on Him, seek His guidance and follow His design. But, many a times we forget this and assume that we know everything.  When things go against our plans, we tend to worry about everything. The result is confusion, tension and depression thereby becoming totally hopeless.

You take any flower bud and try to unfold it without destroying it; you will see that it is not possible to do it as it naturally happens.  Then you read the following poem:

"It is only a tiny rosebud,
A flower of God's design;
But I cannot unfold the petals
With these clumsy hands of mine.

The secret of unfolding flowers
Is not known to such as I.
GOD opens this flower so easily,
But in my hands they die.

If I cannot unfold a rosebud,
This flower of God's design,
Then how can I have the wisdom
To unfold this life of mine?

So I'll trust in God for leading
Each moment of my day.
I will look to God for guidance
In each step along the way.

The path that lies before me,
Only my Lord and Savior knows.
I'll trust God to unfold the moments,
Just as He unfolds the rose.”

You are invited to read Mtt. 6: 25-34 to know what Jesus says about the tendency of worry. God knows better than us and He is capable to unfold the future in the right time.  Depend on Him.
