Are you going to be at peace or worry? You can't have both.

Peace

Worry is a the darkroom where negatives are developed

 


"Worry is interest paid on trouble before it falls due." - William R. Inge


Worrying is useless! Stressing out is pointless! The thing to do instead is to replace all the negativity associated with worry and turn it into something positive. Take the anxiety, the worry and the stress and replace them all with the peace of Christ, understanding that worrying can't change the outcome of anything. St. Paul wrote that the peace of Christ was “a peace that surpasses all human understanding”. Once we occupy ourselves with the task of attaining this Peace – and yes, it is definitely a reachable goal – you will find that the worry and stress you've been suffering from for God-knows-how-long, is suddenly not worth the time it's been taking up.

“Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own”.
