Do you Worry About Life?

Now a days some people seems very busy in worrying many things especially financial aspect and other that could give us stressful events in our life. I sometimes worried those things because I'm human and feel the need of being a Human but it doesn't stop me in believing my spirituality side coz i know its just a short period of time and its not forever. Worrying is the most destructive to us in many ways.It causes us to distress our mental capacity to fight for our dreams and worst to can lead to physical symptoms. When we keep our eyes focused on GOD.We remember how great his love for us and we suddenly realized we truly nothing to worry about. He has a plan for us specially in difficult times, feeling that he didn't care but if we just put our trust fully to him and focus on his kingdom. I'm sure he'll take care all our need if we also take care of our responsibility. How about you?. Do you worry you're failing at life?

Yes, I do worry about those sorts of things too. After all, I'm only human. I think that it's normal to worry about things in life, sometimes.

yes ! i do worry for these things in life but don't let them crave a very large space in mind because I always remember a saying " add life to days not days to life " .

I worry about life. I worry about the near future and the future when I get to retirement age. Right now things at work worry me! We have two people on medical leave who are doing this because they refuse to work with one person who had come back for being suspended for a few months! These two woman have lawyers and not sure what they can or want to do with this situation! So we are shorted at work and it has stressed everyone out at work! One cook,one of my friends,wants to find work elsewere because he is sick of the drama! On top of that I am not sure if my job is secure! I work at a college in food service. We have appointed a new president and we hope he doesn't bring in a company to do the jobs in the kitchen! Food servce is the only department on pins and needles! Very stressful time! I also worry if I will be able to retire when I am of age. I worry I won't have social security to rely on and not be able to live off my retirement fund from work if that happens! Which means I might not be able to retire! So as you can see I worry alot about life!

Obviously we worry about the life.But i consider that if i am going to fail in my life,my slip-up is not caused by the divinity.We have a duty in this life and this is do to things better.So,if i failed in this life in love,money,health..maybe is only my fault..

I use to worry so much about life before that it stresses me so much...to the point that I realized that I'm not enjoying the life that God gave me. So...I started taking things one step at a time, and appreciating every single day. I placed God in my heart...and everything feels so right.

Recently,I began to worry about so many things(coz I am a coach potato,and i am about to graduate.Job,study and the other stuff are annoying me so much).However I agree with that"start taking things one stop at a time,and appreciating every single day",that's what normal ones can do in this world.

Yes, everyone does...but I do believe this quote: " The more you pray, the less you'll panic. The more you worship, the less you worry. You'll feel more patient and less pressured.

I think everyone worries about something now and then. Those days I was planning to buy an apartment, at first, I wanted to buy an apartment with three bedrooms, but after I calculated the fees of it ,it's about 450000yuan, I found I haven't enough money for it . Even if I loan from the bank, it's still a big pressure for me . After about 2 weeks' worry, today I decided to buy a small one with two bedrooms, which is about 300000yuan , I felt happy again. I don't like living in a busy way.

Yes, I do worry about life. I would say that most of us do. In every day of our life, we worry about something. From the material things that we are lacking off to the spiritual concept of life, we do worry it all the times. And if sometimes, our life seems to be in the darkest path of our journey, we oftentimes question our self, "is there anything else I could do" or Could I have done it better?. Life is a constant struggle and we do not know that tomorrow will bring. We can only prepare today so that tomorrow, our worries would ease up.

Worrying is part of people's life. It will really be difficult not to worry but you can possibly do it by trusting God. I can say that sometimes I still worry about things that yet to come. But since I trust and believe God that everything will be fine then those worries transform to hopes.

I like the way you treat your life and your belief in God. I am exactly of same temperament and try to remain calm and happy from within when some problem arrives. It is not difficult once you start to have faith in God. I have often seen myself believing that he will correct it all if we can't. Really faith in God is something which takes whole of our tension time away. You start enjoying your problems. And that what is needed. If you can smile at your worries nothing in this world can make you sad.

yes, i am a worrier too though i own my work for earning money. There are so many pressures on work and life. i am worring i will lose my work if i do not pay all my attention on it. we know to get a work is not easy, to get a better is much more difficulty. if i failed i need start from zero.at that time i become a little older i do not have more advantages to work at a new line.

Ooh, I practically stress over everything. I worry so much over little things. I'm always making little disaster movies in my mind. What I learned to do though is to look at a glass half-full, not half empty. I justify my worries sometimes because it makes me work and strive harder and that's the good and healthy part of worrying. The bad part is when you self-destruct. Anyway, you are right. I do believe God is always looking after us, and catching those worries we have.

I cant help but worry about things most days. We have a very low income and this means i do worry about feeindg the family, are we getting enough good nutritional food. I worry about how we are going to manage how we are going to pay the bills, where our next money will come from, waht it must be spent on. We cant afford luxuries at all, if we go for a day out it is somewhere free, and we take our own food and drinks with us. I Worry that i cant find a job due to my disabilities, and i want to help my partner provide for us as things are such a struggle. beliveing in god wont change that

It is true. We should not worry about life because worrying won't solve our problems, it will just add stress and will decrease your lifespan and cause you many troubles and heartaches so let us quit worrying and start relaxing because there is nothing in life that is worth worrying about.

I use to worry about lots of things that were going on in my life. Now I know that all the worrying that I have done in the past did not do anything to help with the problems that I had.I do tend now not to try to worry about anything, as some how in life things tend to get either better or worse, no matter what you try to do. If I worry it makes me ill and that do not help at all, so I tend to try to have less to worry about in life now and tend to stay away from people that are not real friends.

yes we are all humans and has moments of worries but because God is there and taking care of us the rest should not be as big of a problem. if we constantly have our eyes on God, our fears and troubles shrinks and disappear. It doesn't come always very easily we have a work out to do to get the hang of it ( stay close in all time to God and believe He is always in charge.

The society is constructed in a way that always leads only to put more and more stress on our shoulders. It is impossible to avoid worries in this life. Maybe those people with a strong financial back covering (in this, I am talking about rich parents) are the only persons that live a nice, tranquil life. I find myself in that award situation: the more I study and I work, the blackest the future seems. I even come sometimes to the conclusion, that as long as I cannot change the system, the idea that by work, you will succeed is a totally bluff. I am not worried that I will fail because of me because I know my capacities, but I worried that the society will make me give up and move in the jungle.

I used to be a worrier as well. I came to the conclusion long ago that worrying solves absolutely nothing and just adds mental stress along with physical sickness. Now that I do not worry I find that I leave relatively stress free.
