We live in a fallen world where bad things happen to everyone. Things do not always go our way, for which reason we indulge in worrying, yet worrying has never solved any problem. That is why Jesus told us that, “. . . do not to worry about your life,” (Matthew 6:25). Yes, we shouldn’t be anxious about anything (Philippians 4:6). Instead of worrying, we should do one of the four things below, or a combination of any of them, depending on the issue that is trying to worry us.
In this fallen world, not everything we want happens when, and how we want it to happen. More so, many things that we want to happen never happen, and those things we do not want to happen actually happen. In all such circumstances, the default mode of the fallen mind in this fallen world is to worry. However, Jesus told us – and we should believe and obey Him – not to worry about anything.
