Stop Worrying About It - Lisa Patterson

When worry comes knocking at your door, stop it on the porch or it will move in
and take up residence. Throw the whole weight of the anxieties upon Him, for you are his personal concern. I Peter 5:7. God cares about the things that bother you and prey upon your thoughts. He cares about them more than you do. Not one nagging, gut-wrenching thing goes escaped from Him. You are his personal concern. He watches over you day and night. What qualifies as a worry? Anything that robs you of joy, anything you cannot change, anything you aren't responsible for, anything
you're unable to control, anything that torments you, anything that keeps you awake when you should be asleep.The enemy gives out dreams to frighten and the Lord never gives us those kinds of dreams.
All that stuff needs to be transferred from your worry list to your prayer list. The Bible says: Don't worry about anything; instead pray about everything. Tell God
what you need, and thank Him for all He has done. Then you will experience God's peace. Phip 4: 6-7. Give each worry one by one to God. all about it and all the things that bother you, for he will take them.
The more you practice doing this the more exciting your walk with Him will become.
You'll be amazed at how easily He handles things that overwhelm you. Remind yourself that he is able to to handle it, and waiting for you to give it to Him.
"Cast all your burden on the Lord, and He shall sustain you." Those who live worry
free are those who keep casting their burdens on the Lord until it comes as natural
to them as breathing. So let the Lord love you today like He wants and cast every
thing upon Him so He can take care of it all for you. You cannot fix it anyway.
The Lord would say, "I can take care of it all for you if you will yeild yourself to me.
I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. There is no other God but me. And I am a jealous God, for I do not take it lightly when you choose other gods before me. There are no others, as I have stated in my Word. I do not take it lightly when you pray to other idols other than me. I am forever with you and all you have to do is ask me. I will come near you and be by your side always, until the end of the earth. So do not take this word lightly that I have given you this day. It is placed  here for you and intended for you. I will come as a whirlwind to help you in your hour or need. All I want is to be needed and loved as I have first loved you."
This is Lisa Patterson with the Good News that the Lord Loves You and wants you today. So, come unto Him this hour and receive his goodness and mercy forever.
