two articles to ponder

"If we seek to have a biblical view of ourselves, of other people, and of God, our expectations will shift from hoping that others become like us to hoping that God (through others) will make us more like Him."
-Micah Wierenga

"The reasons that worry is not compatible with the Christian worldview are obvious. If we truly believe what God says about himself in the Bible then we have no justification for fretting.

However, sometimes it is easy to know the truth about something and very difficult to put it into practice. That is where you must begin to consciously remind yourself of the truth. When worry begins to burrow its way into your mind, remember that God is faithful and already has everything under control. He loves you, and will not abandon the good work He has begun in you.

So, in the words of Bob Marley, "Don't worry about a thing. Every little thing is gonna be all right." Hey, it takes the burden away from you. No worries."
