Worry

I have been walking this Christian way for some time. I have read the scriptures do not worry but never looked at it as a sin. Yes I understand adultery is sin and many other things. But worry is one I have overlooked in my life. Just like the word tells us to not commit adultery or do not gossip, the Bible also say do not worry.
“Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? Matthew 6:25 do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. Philippians 4:6
God tells us not to worry or to be anxious about our life.  All my life I considered myself a worrier. I just worry, that is me. Do we consider adultery to just be me, that is part of me, who I am?  God says do not worry. I never looked at it as a sin, but it is. We do not trust God when we worry. God wants us to trust him. If I were to list the things I have worried about, what one thing did I change by worrying? Never have I ever fixed any thing by worry. When you worry you may be actively doing something but you are not getting any where. Someone says it is like sitting in a rocking chair and rocking back and forth. Your doing something but you are not getting any where. Your still in the same spot. All God's commands are for our good. Worry is not healthy. It is bad for our heart, and our health. I never looked at it as sin. But God says don't do it. God says do not commit adultery but do we excuse it and say that is who I am, I will adulterate?  God says do not worry, do not be anxious. Disobeying God is sin. I never looked at worry as sin, my whole life. But God says do not worry. Cast all your cares on him. Just a few days back at a meeting with the Elders at church, I am talking about the Deacons, I am the chair this year, and I said I can worry a little bit. In a congregation of about 500, I don't always see every deacon and I would worry. Are they all here? Do we have enough Deacons for offering or for the Lords Supper? There are so many available as backups, why worry. But just that easy, I said,  I can worry a little. It is like it is no big deal I can worry.  God says do not be anxious about anything. I thought about that exchange, when I said I can worry a little bit. That is not what God wants us to do. I realized how easy it is to step into an attitude of worry. Pastor spoke on worry, and how it is displeasing to God. We are to give everything to God. We have no trouble calling adultery sin, homosexuality sin but what about things like worry. There are not big and little sins. They are all the same in God's eyes. Being a Christian is a life long activity and sometimes even after being a Christian for so many years, God shows us an area were he wants to fix something in our lives. It is something we can change with God's help. God does not want us to be adulterers, but he also does not want us to worry.  Just trust him in everything. God bless, LVZ.
