Bury and kick all the worries that bog you down.

Dr. E. Stanley Jones once said... "I am inwardly fashioned for faith, not for fear. Fear is not my native land; faith is. I am so made that worry and anxiety are sand in the machinery of life; faith is the oil. I live better by faith and confidence than by fear, doubt and anxiety. In anxiety and worry, my being is gasping for breath--these are not my native air. But in faith and confidence, I breathe freely--these are my native air. A John Hopkins University doctor says, 'We do not know why it is that worriers die sooner than the non-worriers, but that is a fact.' But I, who am simple of mind, think I know; we are inwardly constructed in nerve and tissue, brain cell and soul, for faith and not for fear. God made us that way. To live by worry is to live against reality." Worry is focusing on your problems and issues in life. Meditation is focusing on scriptures will bury and kick all the worries that bog you down. Don't forget: Where you focus your mind is completely your choice. So why focus on your problems when you can focus on God?
