Worrying is like a rocking chair. It gives you something to do but it gets you nowhere.’ No one goes through life without facing problems, battles and causes for worry. David faced many difficulties in his life. He wrote on one of the most painful battles of his life . "My close friend with whom I shared my secrets with has turned against me and joined the many who oppose me." David, of course, found this more difficult than if ‘an enemy were insulting him as we all would. As in any battle, we have a ‘choice’ about how we respond. David chose to turn to the Lord and cry out to him ‘evening, morning and noon, If you are involved in a confrontation with a close friend or family member, turn to God for comfort and strength. David did so and as a result he experienced God’s peace. He wrote, ‘he has redeemed my life in peace from the battle that was against me. From David’s own experience he is able to give this advice: ‘Cast your cares on the Lord and he will sustain you. As you face the worries, battles and disappointments of life, don’t allow them to overwhelm you. Like David, turn to the Lord, cast your burdens on him and then say, ‘as for me, I trust in you Lord. Good morning and have a great day at work. Refeences: Psalm 55 and Bible YouVersion
