Daily Bible Verse and Devotion – Luke 12:25

Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to your life? – Luke 12:25 (NIV)

I used to let worry run my life. I’d worry about what one friend thought of me. I’d worry that I said the wrong thing to someone. I would worry that I forgot my assignments for school.

Worry drove my life and I was so unhappy as a result. I could hardly function and lived in indecision not wanting to make a mistake.

I realized one day that worry was not helping me. Instead, it made me upset and not enjoy life.
