(A Carefree Life) "Do not fret or have any anxiety about anything, but in every circumstance and in everything, by prayer and petition [definite request], with thanksgiving, continue to make your wants known to God. And God's peace [shall be yours that tranquil state of a soul assured of its salvation through Christ, and so fearing nothing from God and being content with its earthly lot of whatever sort that is, that peace] which transcends all understanding shall garrison and mount guard over your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus." (Philippians 4:6- 7) the Amplified Bible. Can you really have a Carefree life even when you have 100% of pressures bearing down on you? Yes, you can--- and you don't have to leave the country to do it. No matter how intense or how trivial the problems are that you're facing right now, you can have the most wonderful, most carefree life in these seasons you ever had in your life; and you can start having it today. As a believer of God's Word, you're probably familiar with that scripture that says to be anxious for nothing. But, have you ever taken it seriously enough to put it into action? Again, I know that the five senses have been developed to the point to where some people just can't help but worry and have anxiety. There's a good chance you haven't because you haven't understood just how dangerous those worries or anxieties are. You probably haven't realized that they're a daily part of the devil's strategy against you. That's right. Worry is one of the chief weapons of his warfare. If he can get you to worry or have anxiety about anything, he can use the financial pressures and family pressures and scheduling problems that are just a "normal" part of everyday life to weigh you down and drag you into more trouble than you think possible. You see the enemy uses the power of suggestion. Medical science tells us that a high percentage of people hospitalized in the U. S. A. Are there with ailments caused by worry and tension. Yet, a great many believers worry without even thinking about it. They'll worry about being too short or too skinny. They'll stew over this and that not even realize they've been sinning. Sinning, Brother Lewis?" Yes! For the born-again, spirit filled believer who owns a Bible--- worrying and having anxieties is a sin. Remember, what Jesus said in (Matthew 6:34) "Be, therefore, not anxious about tomorrow; for tomorrow will be anxious for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is its on evil." (v.31) "Therefore do not worry and be anxious, saying, what are we going to have to eat? Or what are we going to have two drink? Or what are we going to have to wear? For the Gentiles [heathens] wish for and crave and diligently seek all these things, and your heavenly Father knows well that you need them all." Do instead, what the Bible says to do. Pray, making your requests known to God. . . And praise Him for the answer. Then you'll have peace. Now, go ahead and have a truly carefree life ! (Matthew 6:24-- 34)
