“Who among una fit use worry add even one moment to im life?…make una first seek God Kingdom and Im righteousness, and dem go still give una all these other things. Make una no worry about tomorrow; tomorrow go take care of imself.” Matthew 6:27 & 33-34
Na advice wey all of us need to hear be this. But, as people dey talk, “To talk am easy pass to do am.”
For some people, worry fit become normal part of life. Plenty different things fit dey make us worry every day. Money matter, relationship with people, work, family, health and plenty other things for life fit cause plenty worry, fear, anxiety and even depression. Too much worry fit truly become heavy load if we no handle am well.
So, wetin be the right way to handle the things wey dey worry you? Trust. Trust God, trust say He dey faithful, trust Im love wey cover every part of your life, and trust the way He dey provide and care for you. He love you and care about you pass wetin you go ever fit understand. And He know every small detail and every problem wey you fit face.
If we truly understand God love and Im wisdom wey no get limit, we no go worry about anything. We go fit trust Am and surrender everything to Am every day, and we go allow Am enter our life and guide us with hope, according to Im perfect plan for our life. But, as we don talk above, to talk this one easy pass to do am.
Another important thing wey go help us overcome the worries and anxiety of life na to seek the Truth. To know the truth dey set us free, and e dey help us see God hand dey work even for situations wey hard pass. God no dey ever abandon us, even though sometimes e fit feel like say He don abandon us. If we fit seek Im voice, Im will, Im wisdom and Im truth, e go easy well-well for us to put our trust for Am. And when we put our trust for Am, we dey find peace for our soul and feel as the heavy load of our worry dey comot.
Today, think deeply about wetin dey worry you pass. E fit be fear wey heavy well-well and dey weigh you down. Or e fit just be one thought wey dey remain for one corner of your mind all the time. No matter how your own be, try know wetin be like say e dey weigh you down pass and dey cause you the most worry. Then try seek God truth as e concern your situation, so that you go fit surrender with trust to Im perfect plan for your life.
Lord wey get perfect wisdom, I truly trust You, but my trust still no dey reach as e suppose reach. When the heavy loads and worries of life dey weigh me down, help me surrender those worries to You. Jesus, na You I trust.
