Imagine you receive a call from the doctor’s office. “The doctor has reviewed your tests and would like you to come into the office for a consultation.” As quickly as you can say “uh-oh,” you have a choice: anxiety or trust.
Anxiety says. . .Why does God let bad things happen to me? Have I done something wrong? I’m too young for this tragedy. If you aren’t already sick, you will be by the time you get to the doctor. “Anxiety weighs down the human heart,” the Bible says in Proverbs 12:25.
But there is a better way. Before you call your mom, spouse, or friend, call on God. Invite him to speak to the problem. Slap handcuffs on the culprit, the anxious thought, and march it before the One who has all authority, Jesus Christ. For all you know, the doctor may have good news. God may want you to be a poster child of good health and healing. All you can do is pray and trust.
