Don't Worry.
Hey everyone. Just had a thought I wanted to share with y'all. There is a story 'bout a man named Paul who was a strong Christian. Once he was ship wrecked on an island. While gathering wood for a fire, he was bit on the hand by a viper. Everyone became afraid and thought for sure that Paul was a dead man, but Paul simply shook the snake into the fire and kept right on gathering wood. I always thought of this as a proof of truth of what Jesus said 'bout treading upon the serpent and the scorpions in aparable. But it means so much more. Everybody was WORRIED and thought for sure that Paul was a goner. This shows that the Devil can use worry to pull you down. If Paul would've listened to the people around him and not trusted in God to do what He said He would do, he could've died 'cause the snake was extremely venomous. We can put this into spiritual perspective. When Satan tries to cause you to worry, shake him off and trust in the promises of God. He won't let you down no matter what. So don't worry; trust in God instead.
