I have always been prone to worrying. I worry about money. I worry about my kids. I worry about vehicles breaking down. You name it, I worry about it. God wants us to trust him with our burdens. Nothing is to big for him to carry for us. God loves us and wants us to live peace-filled, joyful lives. The next time you feel anxious about something, meditate on one(or more) of the verses below and let the peace of God fill your heart. Give it to God, he can handle it!
Jeremiah 32:17
“Ah, Sovereign Lord, you have made the heavens and the earth by your great power and your outstretched arm. Nothing is to hard for you.”
Matthew 7:7-8
“Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.”
1 John 5:14-15

Jesus replied, “I tell you the truth, if you have faith and do not doubt, not only can you do what was done to the fig tree, but also you can say to this mountain, ‘Go, throw yourself into the sea,’ and it will be done. If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer.”
Luke 17:5-6
The apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith.” He replied, “If you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mulberry tree, ‘be uprooted and planted in the sea,’ and it will obey you.”
