food to eat— for he grants sleep
to those he loves.
3. Get up on time so you
can start the day
unrushed.
4.'Never borrow from the future. If

twice.' (Judy)
 1 Peter 5:7 - Give all you worries to God because He cares
for you.
 
 Luke 12: 22-26 - The Jesus said to his disciples:  "Therefore
I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat; or
about your body, what you will wear.  Life is more than
food, and the body more than clothes.  Consider the
ravens, They do not sow or reap, they have no storeroom or
barn; yet God feeds them.  And how much more valuable
you are than birds:
Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life? 
Since you cannot do this very little thing, why do you worry
about the rest?.........But seek His kingdom, and these
things will be given to you as well.”
5. Say No to projects that won't fit
into your time schedule, or that will

your hearts will be weighed down
with dissipation, drunkenness and
the anxieties of life, and that day
will close on you unexpectedly like
a trap. 
For it will come upon all those who
live on the face of the whole earth. 
Be always on the watch, and pray
that you may be able to escape all
that is about to happen and that
you may be able to
stand before the Son of Man."  
8. Less is more. (Although one is
often not enough, two are often
too many.)
9. Allow extra time to do
things and to get to
places.
10. Pace yourself. Spread out
big changes and difficult
projects over time; don't lump
the hard things all together.
11. Take one day at a time (Denise)
 Matthew 6:25-34 - Therefore I tell you, do not worry
about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about
your body, what you will wear. Is not life more
important than food, and the body more important
than clothes? 26Look at the birds of the air; they do
not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your
heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more
valuable than they? 27Who of you by worrying can
add a single hour to his life[a]?  28"And why do you
worry about clothes? See how the lilies of the field
grow. They do not labor or spin. 29Yet I tell you that
not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like
one of these. 30If that is how God clothes the grass of
the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown
into the fire, will he not much more clothe you, O you
of little faith? 31So do not worry, saying, 'What shall
we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we
wear?‘ 32For the pagans run after all these things,
and your heavenly Father knows that you need them.
33
But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness,
and all these things will be given to you as well.
34
Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for
tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough
trouble of its own.

concern, find out what God
would have you do and let go
of the anxiety . If you can't do
anything about a situation,
forget it.

don't use credit cards for
ordinary purchases. TAKE HEED

But the plans of the LORD stand firm
forever,
