Sunday Thought 15

Fear. It can grip us at anytime. Financially, our anxieties or worries are more about losing things. Losing a job, losing overtime, losing the car, the house, etc. We start asking what if, and our minds go down a dark road. And with instant news and communication, we can feed our fears 24 hours a day. The media loves tragedy, fear, and uncertainty – and we buy it.

We need to reject this attitude of fear. Life is too short to be bound up in fear and in the what if’s. Be thankful for what you do have, rest in the joy of today.

“Anxiety in the heart of a man weighs it down, but a good word makes it glad.” (Bible, Proverbs 12:25)
