Don't carry the Load!

S - Scripture  
Proverbs  12 v. 25 Anxiety in a mans heart weights him down, but a good word makes him glad.  

O - Observation
The weight of the world. We don't have to carry the load. There is a lot that's going on right now that can really burden you, Killer economic times, crazy situations at work, local and global issues. It can be depressing. Jesus points out the fallacy of anxiety. Matthew 6 v. 27, "And which of you by being anxious can add one cubit to his span of life?" Anxiety, worry actually decreases life span. But a good word makes him Glad. Jesus provides GREAT words for us Matthew 6 v. 25a, 26, "Therefore I tell you do not be anxious about your life... Look at the birds in the air, they neither sow nor reap nor gather in barns, and yet, your Heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not MORE VALUABLE than they?" - Absolutely!!!

A - Application
What is my anxiety level? Do I realize and believe that God loves me?

P - Prayer   
Jesus, Thank you for your good word in these troubling times. Help me to share that word with others.  Love Will.
