WHY WORRY?
Good Morning!!!
WHY WORRY?
Around the Year with Emmet Fox
November 19
Nothing is really worth worrying about.
Nothing is really worth getting
angry or hurt or bitter about.
Positively nothing is worth
losing your peace of mind over.
These important truths follow logically
upon the following fact:
You are going to live forever—somewhere.
This means that there is plenty of time
to get things right again
if they have gone wrong.
No matter what mistake you may have made,
enough prayer will overtake it and cancel it.
If those you love seem to be acting foolishly,
you can help them with prayer to be wiser,
and, meanwhile, if they suffer, it means that kindly nature
is teaching them a lesson that they need to learn.
But suppose something awful should happen?
Well, what then?
Suppose you lost everything
and landed in the poorhouse.
What then?
Think what a wonderful demonstration
you could make there,
and you would probably learn
several valuable lessons there,
and, anyway, it would be quite interesting.
Suppose the whole universe blew up.
What then?
When the dust settles, God will still be in business
and you will be alive somewhere, ready to carry on.
“Cast thy burden upon the Lord,
and He shall sustain thee:
He shall never suffer the righteous to be moved”
Psalm 55:22
