Stop Worrying

Donwan 1970 (New Jersey)



DO NOT START YOUR DAY BY WORRYING-- THAT TROUBLE IS JUST NEAR. IS IT BETTER TO STOP WORRYING AND START YOUR DAY WITH PRAYER OF THANKS INSTEAD----- FOR THE WONDERFUL THINGS GOD HAS WROUGHT- LIKE BEAUTIFUL SUN- SKIES LANDS OCEANS, EVEN HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON. GOD'S GIFTS ARE FREE THERE, NOT MEANT TO BE BROUGHT. FOR WHAT IS GOOD OF WORRYING. THE DIRE THINGS THAT COULD HAPPEN TO YOU AND TO WORRY ABOUT SOME MISFORTUNE THAT SELDOM EVER COMES TRUE. INSTEAD OF IDLE WORRYING---STEP FOREWARD TO MEET EACH NEW DAY AHEAD WITH SOME TYPE OF OBJECTIVE. SECURE IN THE KNOWLEDGE THAT GOD IS NEAR TO LEAD YOU EACH STEP OF THE WAY. FOR WORRYING THE WORST THINGS WILL HAPPEN ONLY HELPS TO MAKE THEM COME TRUE, FOR YOU WILL DARKEN THE HAPPY MOMENTS. SO IF YOU DESIRE TO BE HAPPY, AND GET RID OF THE MISERY OF DREAD JUST GIVE OF WORRYING AND LOOK AHEAD. LOOK FOR THE BEST THINGS WAITING FOR YOU FAR AHEAD INSTEAD OF WORRYING ABOUT THE THINGS YOU DREAD
