Perfect partners? Talking and eating aren’t very good partners when you come right down to it. One requires an open airway the other a closed one. Similarly, when you and I choose to combine work and worry, choking can easily become the consequence.
Think about it. When you and I choose to take on the worrying part of our partnership with God, it’s likely that we’ll have bit off more than we can chew. And, that bite will probably cause us to choke on something we were never meant to swallow–worry.
God’s Word tells us: “Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.” (Philippians 4:6).
Like trying to talk while you’re eating, the outcome is very likely to make you choke on those tasks. The Bible instructs that we should not “be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God . . . (Philippians 4:6). The reasons being? God never chokes on tomorrow because He already knows what it tastes like.
“I pray today in Jesus name that when we are not anxious about anything because we ought to know that God has our back even before we know that we have a ‘back’ to be had.” Amen!”
“Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own” (Matthew 6:34) www.thispassingday.com
