“Worry affects the circulation, the heart, the digestive system and entire nervous system. I’ve never known a person to die of overwork, but many who died of worry”.

Infers God is a liar

“You will never have victory over worry unless you admit that worry is a sin.”

Philippians 4:8,

I can do all things through Christ which strengthened me' .Phil. 4:13.

In all your ways acknowledge Him, lean not in your own understanding. (Prov. 3:5-6),

and be careful of your thoughts for this will shape your life.(Prov. 4:23)

Do you want to move mountains?

Do not be anxious but Pray

Anxiety or worry is not a riddle to solve, because we will not earn God’s blessing.

Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with

thanksgiving present your request to God. Philippians 4: 6

Page 9: How to be happy

A truly successful prayer is not one that has

secured an affirmative answer to our petition, but one that has brought us closer to the one we've petitioned. (Bishop Tom Wright).

Pray for the will of God.

If you are praying because of your own desires, you are asking for the wrong things.

Trust God

The battle is not yours, but God’s.

2 Chronicles 20: 15-17

Page 11: How to be happy

"It is when you begin to trust in yourself that you will see yourself fall.

If you keep yourself in the Lord, no moment in life that you will fail because in this life all the battles are not yours, but God's".

Page 12: How to be happy

“If your every human plan and calculation has miscarried, if one by one human props have been knocked out and doors have shut in your face, take heart.

God is trying to get a message through you. And the message is:

STOP depending on inadequate human resources. Let me handle the matter”.

Catherine Marshall
