Fret or Worry: Why

Phil. 4:6-7 – Don't fret or worry. Instead of worrying, pray. Let petitions and praises shape your worries into prayers, letting God know your concerns. Before you know it, a sense of God's wholeness, everything coming together for good, will come and settle you down. It's wonderful what happens when Christ displaces worry at the center of your life. (MSG). If you ask someone about why they worry, they could not tell you. It is a habit, a learned behavior, or ritual handed down as a part of our genealogical legacy. It has becomes strikingly salient to our culture, as well as an inherent part of our personality. We seem to have forgotten everything has a purpose, and experience teaches lessons that pedagogy and professors never could. As we forget, we do not get the labels, whatever it is, before we have had the experience or done the work for it. Yet, we fret and worry, even after we have made our petitions to the Father; as if God will forget or lie. We need to begin to remember if he said it, it will come to pass. We just have to keep believing, not being deceived because the timing does not fit our wants, or address our desired outcome. God does what is best, not what we want, unless it aligned with His will. However, we do have free will; God sent or God used. For time will create what we would have never thought to develop or conceive. As our focused orientation determines our many encounters on our journey to our destination, thus nothing is haphazard or random as we like to think in our life. (We choose what we encounter with acknowledgement, denial, love, fear, faith, security, weakness, submission, etc) Hence, if we acknowledge every effort embodies a wealth of learning, then we would be taught better so we our do better to shape our critical analysis of in life. We are able to create a more positive future, live out our destiny and true passion when we learn to decouple ourselves from certain situations, individuals or problems; we gotta wanna know. But more importantly, we have to learn to let God deal, handle, and address all that he should in our life, as we do our part. The truth is too many times, we do not because it hurts us too much; we are fearful of the pain and would rather just fret and worry.

Worry, fret, or fear colors our life choices and behavior. Yet, we know, no one has ever learned a new thing, changed, or redirected him/herself without a few bumps and bruises as they find their balance. Be free and believe the promises of Christ, it what it is, there is no deviation or lies. All that he brings to you, or allowed to happen to you, He make beautiful in his times. Why? He knows your future; he sees it in the totality of everything and loves you enough to get you there, inspite your best effort to counter it. Let me say this again, He, our Father sees our life in totality, everything, beginning to end, and still gives to us. Now that is some unconditional love…Fret or Worry: Why
