"Do you know why that cow looks over that wall? She looks over the wall because she cannot see through it, and that is what you must do with your troubles... Look over and above them." - John Wesley

How does worry get hold of us?

  • We worry about our finances
  • We want to be successful
  • We worry about our relationships

How to deal with worry:

  • Priority - first seek God - the will of God (Matthew 6: 3)
  • Prayer - Present your request to God (Philippians 4: 6-7)
  • Perspective - with thanks giving (Thank you for the cross Lord, I am trusting You)

Do not worry - if you worry you lack faith. (Matthew 6: 25-34)
Abraham was saved by his act of faith.

He who began a good work in you is faithful to complete it. (Hebrews 3: 12-14)
