How many times do we fret and worry about that which we have little control over? \u00a0Much of our worry can be left in our Fathers hands. \u00a0When looking at ourselves in the mirror where do we turn first – to worry and being anxious or to God? I wonder what life would be like if we turned to God first. \u00a0 These are a few verses from a song \u00a0“First” by Lauren Dangle:<\/p>\n
Before I bring my need
\nI will bring my heart
\nBefore I lift my cares
\nI will lift my arms<\/p>\n
Before I bring my need
\nI will bring my heart
\nAnd seek You<\/p>\n
Before I speak a word
\nLet me hear Your voice
\nAnd in the midst of pain
\nLet me feel Your joy<\/p>\n
Before I speak a word
\nI will bring my heart
\nAnd seek You<\/p>\n

\n\u201cTherefore I tell you, do not be anxious<\/strong> about your life<\/p>\n
\nAnd which of you by being anxious<\/strong> can add a single hour to his span of life?<\/p>\n
\nTherefore do not be anxious<\/strong>, saying, \u2018What shall we eat? \u2019 or \u2018What shall we drink? \u2019 or \u2018What shall we wear? \u2019 For the Gentiles seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you<\/p>\n
\nDo not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him<\/p>\n
\ndo not be anxious about anything<\/strong>, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God<\/strong>, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus<\/p>\n
