what are you worried about?...

another priority that shows whether my heart is pure, is my anxieties. what do i worry about the most?

you can tell a lot about a person by what they worry about.

matthew 6.25 (niv), therefore i tell you, do not worry about your life…

if you'll go through all of matthew 6, the five most common worries are in this passage. v. 24 – finances; v. 25 – food; v. 27 – fitness; v. 28 – fashion; v. 34 – future.

if you're worrying about any of these things, it means GOD is not number one in your life. you have a misplaced priority.

you need to check out your anxieties. worry indicates there is a wrong priority. worry says, "GOD, i think i'm in charge here."

do you worry about your finances instead of trusting GOD? do you worry about fashion? the bible says, don't worry about clothes. GOD says "check out these things to see if your motives are right."

just a thought from the front porch…
