“Call to me in times of trouble. I will save you, and you will honor me.” Psalm 50:15 (NCV)
Want to worry less? Then pray more. Rather than look forward in fear, look upward in faith. This command surprises no one. Regarding prayer, the Bible never blushes. Jesus taught people that
“it was necessary for them to pray consistently and never quit” (Luke 18:1 MSG).
Paul told believers,
“Devote yourselves to prayer with an alert mind and a thankful heart” (Colossians 4:2 NLT).
James declared,
“Are any among you suffering? They should keep on praying about it” (James 5:13 NLT).
Rather than worry about anything, “pray about everything.” Everything? Diaper changes and dates? Business meetings and broken bathtubs? Procrastinations and prognostications? Pray about everything!
