Speaking words of wisdom

By G. EDWARD GEANS Minister Most of us worry to much. And usually we worry the most about the things over which we have the least control. One elderly person remarked, “I have had a lot of trouble — most of which never happened!” We probably all know from experience that worry can drain us of energy and the ability to function at 100 per cent capacity. Worry can, in fact, cause actual physical distress. It can rob us of precious days that might normally be filled with contentment and peace. In a sentence, worry can be a real waste! The Bible says, “Be not anxious about tomorrow” (Matthew 6:34). 1116 key to overcoming worry is trust in God. Jesus reminds us, “sufficient unto the day is its own evil.” We must learn to trust each day, one day at a time, in God’s hands. Each day has enough burdens of its own. We do not need to heap on ourselves burdens from yesterday’s disappointments or tomorrow’s uncertainties. An unknown poet has penned these words, “I heard a voice at evening softly say, ‘Bear not thy yesterdays into tomorrow, nor load this week with last week’s load of sorrow. Lift all thy burdens as they come, nor try to weigh the present with the by-and-by. One step and then another take thy way — live day by day!” Worry is a form of unbelief. Jesus calls for our faith in His care. He has promised to meet our needs. It simply remains for us to believe Him. Jesus said,

“Seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things shall be added unto you.” Worry is also a form of selfishness. It takes a humble spirit of surrender to relinquish control of life over to another person. It is the insecure, selfish person that wants to be in control. It is the selfish person that wants to be in the driver’s seat. Worry may often be our way of telling God that we are not content with the way He is handling a

United States postal policy seems to be responsible for the fluctuating value of the stamp. The government originally printed 383,311,500 stamps to commemorate the 1980 Olympics. Shortly after they became available, President Carter declared an Olympic boycott and the stamps were withdrawn from the market. Trading and hoarding began and their value in many cases quadrupled. In August, however, the Carter administration ordered all unsold stamps back on the market.thus restoring the stamp’s value to its original 15 cents and stinging ■nany stamp collectors. I
