Worry

Last Sunday my pastor preached on Matthew 6:25-34. The gist of his sermon was that we should not worry. We should remember that God is in the details of life taking care of us.

I have a question. What is worry, and how does one avoid it? Sure, I know by experience what it is, but I need words. Help me to define the term and explain to me how NOT to do it. (It comes so naturally to me.)

I can only speak from my experience. For me worry is 1. Lack of trust and 2. my desire to control.

I find I worry when I think I can control the situation and when I do not trust.

The answer is simple...trust and let Him take control yet it is very hard to do considering our sin nature, pride, etc.
