Beyond all the encouragement we can have, we are constantly in worry, we are sometimes unable to get rid of it.
The thing we want each of us to understand is that worry doesn’t come with faith.
Faith loses its power when worries set in.
Worries break faith.
Worries are doubts, hesitations, fear, excessive worry, anxiety…
The story of Marthe and Mary teaches us this morning.
Marthe wants to do many things for the Lord, which is normal.
Marthe is preoccupied and overwhelmed by her activity to the point of criticizing her sister Marie who, for her, is lazy.
Marthe had lost sight of the essential, it’s true that she spent herself for the Lord, she was convinced that she was in God’s will like us who are in service.
Martha was so concerned about her service that she wanted the Lord to take back her sister who is seated at her feet.
With our carnal eyes, Marie did nothing but she was the one who chose the good part.
All that mattered to him was to stay with Jesus to allow himself to be taught and formed.
Marthe was worried, her mind was troubled and Marie was not, her mind was positive.
The Bible clearly tells us that we need not worry.
This is what is written in Philippians, 4:6 – Do not worry about anything; but in everything make your needs known to God by prayers and supplications, with thanksgiving.
Have a positive mindset.
This is an advice,
It’s an order,
It depends on us.
There is nothing good in worries, they steal our peace, they prevent us from resting, they make us nervous and angry, they inject us with diseases…
Let’s look to the Lord, let’s keep the faith.
*But in everything* not some things, all things, no matter what they are.
We must go before the Lord with the smallest details of our lives.
*Make your needs known* it is about our needs, what is necessary, useful to us.
Let’s drop what is useless and let’s talk to God, let’s have contact with him, he is a Father and not a stranger.
*Through prayers and supplications*
It is in the secret place that God allows himself to be found, when we open our hearts to him, he reassures us.
Let us not be afraid to importune our God.
*With Thanksgiving*
The Lord is happy when we give him all the gratitude, he wants us to know how to say thank you.
Worry draws us away from the presence of God, keeps us captive and robs our positive spirit.
So, let’s follow the Lord’s recommendation, it’s for our benefit.
Hello beloved
Good day
