There are many things that worry everyone as human beings. For me, I have always thought that worrying is not going to solve anything and leads to so many ills of the body and mind. I have learned to live because of the promise in Matthew 6:24-34. When we worry, it's like carrying a heavy load on the head or wearing a York around the neck.
I have worried sometimes and forgot that I was promised that God will take care of tomorrow when it comes before me. But I never seized to pray and realised that he took care of me in the past and he will take care of me in the future.
On February 13th, the twins were baptised and we made the promise that we will guide them in the right path of Jesus Christ. We did not make this promise alone, the Church members were also witnesses and made that promise to guide them. 2 days later, they turned 2years old.
Though the we made the promise, questions lingered in my head on how we are going to do that. How are we going to know that we are leading them in the right direction? these questions and many. But I quickly remembered of the promise and the consequences of worrying, Proverbs 12:25. I have learned to lean and leave it all in the hands of God, that he will give the wisdom to raise them and and teach them to seek the kingdom of God first and and have faith in him alone to provide all things.
Now that the girls are growing up, I pray and hope that they grow up in trusting the Lord and not to worry as it wears down the heart, shows our lack of faith in our efforts to pray. I believe worrying is absolutely contrary to faith as Christians. We can not put our faith in Christ and turn around and worry. This shows how little faith we have in Christ. Instead of worrying, why not kneel down and pray and God will find a way to provide. Find a solution to our problems as he gave us minds to think and get out of situations. Never underestimate the power of God's promise.
