Worrying is not yours

“Now don’t worry about a thing, my daughter. I will do what is necessary, for everyone in town knows you are a virtuous woman.” Ruth 3:11

What a beautiful promise God gives us? He tells each and every one of His daughters not to worry about a thing! But isn’t it our nature to worry about everything? From the tiniest detail to the biggest event. God is in the tiny details too, no matter how small – just look at the heterotrimeric protein called the Laminin…

I know it’s not easy not to worry. Hundreds of times I caught myself pondering and worrying over something I already gave to God. I need to constantly remind myself that I gave it to God and I don’t want it back, because He loves me so much that he takes my worries and will do what is necessary on my behalf. Romans 8:28 reminds us that God works all things good for those who love Him. And I do love Him very much! Worrying is not yours my dear sister. Give it to God.

Ruth Relationship Advice: Be a warrior, not a worrier!

Prayer: Father thank You for this beautiful promise and for reminding me throughout Your Word that You are sovereign and always has my best interest at heart. I repent the times I have worried unnecessary and ask the Holy Spirit to bring it to remembrance when I’m on the worry path. Amen.
