“Be not therefore anxious.” — Jesus Christ.
“In nothing be anxious.” — St. Paul.
“Casting all your anxiety upon Him.” — St. Peter.
DON’T worry! “Ah,” says some anxious reader, “it is easy to preach, but hard to practise. No doubt it is good advice, but can we follow it?”
Yes, we can learn to follow it. It comes naturally to none; it is a lesson that must be learned. Yet it can be learned.
Many people seem never to understand that they must learn how to live. They suppose that they were sent into life just as they are to go through life, and do not realize that there are a great many things in them that need to be changed, many that require to be made over altogether. It comes naturally to no one to live well, to live ideally. We have many things to overcome, faults to correct, undisciplined power, to bring under control, hindrances to subdue and change into helps.
