Trust God More and Worry Less

To not worry we need to learn how to trust God more. We all have our own set of worries. It is normal to worry, but God doesn’t want us to be filled with worry. God wants us to be filled with Him. Worrying doesn’t help fix our problems. Only God can do that! When we trust God with our worries, we are learning how to be filled with Him and not filled with worry.
In our
relationship with God, trusting is a constant process. We don’t just decide to trust God and never worry again. Worries are going to come, but it is what we do with our worries that matters. Trusting God is the continual practice of reminding ourselves that we must trust God when a worry comes our way. Trusting God makes worry disappear!
