"What do you do with your worries?"


A friend shared a story with me recently about Stanley. Stanley worked hard as a business owner, providing his customers with outstanding service and his family with a decent living.

Of course his business activities required a lot from Stanley and like most of us, Stanley worried from time to time. His business ebbed and flowed. He wondered during the ebbs when his next customer would walk through the door. When it flowed, he wondered how he would keep up. Worries pursued Stanley.

So Stanley decided to find a new way to take care of his worries. He planted a bush by the backdoor of his home and each evening before he went in, he paused for just a moment and put all of his worries on that bush. Amazingly the bush held up under the weight of those worries and by the next morning all of the worries had blown away.

Plant your worry bush. And ask God to help it grow so all of your worries from one day won’t carry over to the next—they’ll just blow away—as you listen to life and make a life, not just a living today.
