Worried?
`Do
not allow the perplexities and worries of everyday life to fret your
mind and cloud your brow. If you do, you will always have something
to vex and annoy. Life is what we make it, and we shall find what we
look for. If we look for sadness and trouble, if we are in a frame
of mind to magnify little difficulties, we shall find plenty of them
to engross our thoughts and our conversation. But if we look on the
bright side of things, we shall find enough to make us cheerful and
happy. If we give smiles, they will be returned to us; if we speak
pleasant, cheerful words, they will be spoken to us again.’
(ML195)

`Cast
your burden on the LORD, And He shall sustain you.' (Psalm 55:22) |
`When
we really believe that God loves us and means to do us good, we
shall cease to worry about the future. We shall trust God as a child
trusts a loving parent. Then our troubles and torments will
disappear, for our will is swallowed up in the will of God.’
(2MCP468)
`Christians
should not allow themselves to be troubled with anxious care as to
the necessities of life. If men love and obey God, and do their
part, God will provide for all their wants.' (CS227)
`Our
heavenly Father has a thousand ways to provide for us of which we
know nothing. Those who accept the one principle of making the
service of God supreme, will find perplexities vanish and a plain
path before their feet.’ (MH481)
