Well, automatically, 39 00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:06,919 Speaker 4: my worry was kicked in. That was my first response. 40 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:09,480 Speaker 4: I thought, Oh my gosh, what do I have to 41 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:15,239 Speaker 4: worry about? You See, that's what happens. Sometimes our worry 42 00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:19,760 Speaker 4: automatically kicks in without us even knowing it. We just 43 00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:24,720 Speaker 4: worry when a concern or a care comes into our life. Now, 44 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 4: this particular problem was not huge, it wasn't monumental, but 45 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:33,760 Speaker 4: it was a problem all the same. It was something 46 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 4: that needed to be resolved. So I had to push 47 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:40,880 Speaker 4: pause for a moment and make a decision. Was I 48 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 4: going to let this concern overtake me, cause my mind 49 00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:53,400 Speaker 4: to just spin out of control, fret and worry until 50 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:57,440 Speaker 4: the problem has resolved itself. Was I going to ruin 51 00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:03,440 Speaker 4: my entire day because this concern? Are Was I going 52 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:07,520 Speaker 4: to say, God, you got to help me with this situation. God, 53 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:10,359 Speaker 4: I got to present this to you. You know everything 54 00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:13,799 Speaker 4: about me. You said you'd fight my battles for me. Now, God, 55 00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:16,359 Speaker 4: I am giving this to you, and I'm going to 56 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:20,080 Speaker 4: try to rest and hear everything you would want me 57 00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 4: to hear from you. You see, we have to make 58 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:27,799 Speaker 4: this choice. How are we going to handle this thing 59 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 4: called worry? Are we going to just work it in 60 00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:33,800 Speaker 4: our minds? 61 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:34,960 Speaker 5: You know? 62 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:38,040 Speaker 4: Sometimes I when I worry, it's like I'm really doing something. 63 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 4: I'm just working it and working it and working it 64 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 4: in my mind. I heard worry was a lot like 65 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 4: sitting in a rocking chair. You're doing something, but it's 66 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 4: getting you nowhere. We're just working it and working it 67 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:55,560 Speaker 4: and working it in our minds, and that's so unproductive. 68 00:03:56,400 --> 00:04:02,280 Speaker 4: My question today is how are you handling worry? Because 69 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 4: how we handle worry and stress is going to make 70 00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 4: all the difference in our life. There's two sisters in 71 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:14,080 Speaker 4: the Bible named Mary and Martha. You can find their 72 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:18,200 Speaker 4: story in Luke. Mary and Martha two sisters. They had 73 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:21,240 Speaker 4: a brother. They were obviously, from what the scholars say, 74 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 4: well to do people. So they had a lot going 75 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:25,800 Speaker 4: on in their life. They had money to manage, they 76 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:27,760 Speaker 4: had a home to manage, they had a lot of 77 00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 4: things happening. One day, Jesus came to their home. He 78 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:34,880 Speaker 4: was going to stay with them, he was going to 79 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:38,400 Speaker 4: fellowship with them. I'm sure they were so excited. I'm 80 00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:40,960 Speaker 4: sure that everybody in the town knew, hey, Jesus is 81 00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:43,560 Speaker 4: coming over to my house because this was a very 82 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:47,680 Speaker 4: important person. So I'm sure they were preparing. They were 83 00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 4: getting everything just perfect for Jesus. Jesus came to their 84 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 4: home as they were fellowshipping and as they were enjoying Jesus, 85 00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:02,640 Speaker 4: Jesus noticed something about Martha. She was buzzing around, she 86 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:06,120 Speaker 4: was working it, working it, working it, and he said 87 00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:11,720 Speaker 4: to her, Martha, Martha, why are you so anxious and 88 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:16,760 Speaker 4: troubled about so many things? You see, he had observed 89 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 4: Martha as they were in this home. He saw how 90 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 4: she was handling all that to do that was going on. 91 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:30,840 Speaker 4: But in contrast, here's her sister, Mary. Now Mary had 92 00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:34,920 Speaker 4: as much responsibility as Martha did. But Mary said, I'm 93 00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 4: going to take this opportunity when all my busyness and 94 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:42,840 Speaker 4: all the concerns that I have to just linger here 95 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:47,080 Speaker 4: with Jesus because he's at my house today. I want 96 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:49,920 Speaker 4: to sit at his feet. I'm going to pour out 97 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:53,160 Speaker 4: my heart to him so he can pour in his 98 00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:58,479 Speaker 4: thoughts to me. You see, Martha was so disturbed that 99 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:03,000 Speaker 4: her sister would have the audacity to sit at the 100 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:05,479 Speaker 4: feet of Jesus when there was so much to do 101 00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:09,200 Speaker 4: that she said, Jesus, you need to tell my sister 102 00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 4: to come help me. She needs to get up, and 103 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 4: she needs to get in this kitchen. There's the emails 104 00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:17,920 Speaker 4: to answer, there's stuff on the stove, the kids needed 105 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:20,080 Speaker 4: to be taken care of. There's a bunch of stuff 106 00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:21,800 Speaker 4: to do, and she needs to get up and she 107 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:26,200 Speaker 4: needs to help me. Can you believe she would even 108 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:29,680 Speaker 4: say that to her. Guest of honor, he said, to her, 109 00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:37,200 Speaker 4: Mary has chosen the one important thing. She's chosen that 110 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:42,800 Speaker 4: one thing. She's chosen the better way. Now, let me 111 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:45,480 Speaker 4: just tell you this right now. He said, there's one 112 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:51,320 Speaker 4: important thing. There's a better way. Now. He was very 113 00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:57,800 Speaker 4: much aware of the legitimate concerns that these women had. 114 00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 4: The Bible says that Jesus said, in this world, you're 115 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:04,280 Speaker 4: gonna have trouble, You're gonna have hardship, You're gonna have 116 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:07,360 Speaker 4: some things that come against you. But be of good cheer. 117 00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 4: I have already overcome the world. Be of good cheer. 118 00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:16,320 Speaker 4: I've already overcome the world. I guess when you look 119 00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 4: at that scripture, you can say, easy for you to say, Jesus, 120 00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 4: you are God. I still have these troubles and these concerns. 121 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:29,040 Speaker 4: But this is what he was saying. He wasn't saying 122 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:35,280 Speaker 4: that you shouldn't take your responsibility seriously. He wasn't saying 123 00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:38,800 Speaker 4: that there weren't legitimately things to be done. He was saying, 124 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:42,600 Speaker 4: there's one important thing, and it's the better way. What 125 00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:46,000 Speaker 4: he was saying is all these concerns, all these crises, 126 00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:48,880 Speaker 4: all these things that are coming against you, you need 127 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:53,040 Speaker 4: to come hang around at my feet, linger in my presence, 128 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:56,880 Speaker 4: because see, that's the one important thing that's gonna help 129 00:07:56,920 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 4: you get through. That's the better way to handle worry 130 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:07,160 Speaker 4: and stress. That's the better way to handle worry and stress. 131 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:12,520 Speaker 4: You see. I believe that Mary somehow figured out the 132 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:16,560 Speaker 4: better way, and she did it. It wasn't that she 133 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 4: was lazy. It wasn't that she didn't care. Mary said, look, 134 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:25,600 Speaker 4: this is my chance right now to empty out the 135 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:30,360 Speaker 4: concerns and to put in all that God is. You See, 136 00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:33,240 Speaker 4: that's the better way. Have you ever planned a birthday 137 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:36,240 Speaker 4: party or a holiday celebration at your house or some 138 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 4: gathering and you were so stressed out that you made 139 00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:41,319 Speaker 4: your own self miserable and maybe some of your friends 140 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:44,680 Speaker 4: and family as well. There's a better way to handle 141 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:48,400 Speaker 4: the stresses of life. The word worry comes from an 142 00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:53,120 Speaker 4: old English word in the fifteen hundreds that meant to strangle, 143 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:58,280 Speaker 4: to strangle. I think that's an amazing interpretation of that word, 144 00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:03,319 Speaker 4: because worry and stress literally chokes the fun out of life. 145 00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:07,640 Speaker 4: It literally pressures us in every relationship that we have. 146 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 4: It steals our joy. Think about it. Jesus was at 147 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:18,559 Speaker 4: Martha's house. She couldn't even enjoy the fact that Jesus 148 00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 4: was there. She missed the whole beauty of the moment. 149 00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 4: She couldn't calm down, relax and be peaceful. She allowed 150 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:31,680 Speaker 4: the stress that was going on in her mind to 151 00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:36,600 Speaker 4: strain the relationship with her own sister. See, it was 152 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:42,040 Speaker 4: an attitude that changed. Worry doesn't change anything but your personality. 153 00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:48,000 Speaker 4: It changes your disposition. It doesn't make the situation better. 154 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:53,240 Speaker 4: Actually it makes the situation worse. I worked with a 155 00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:58,400 Speaker 4: woman several years ago, and she had some legitimate concerns 156 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:00,400 Speaker 4: in her life, and I could see how it was 157 00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:05,280 Speaker 4: affecting her entire life. Her son was in the military 158 00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 4: and he had been deployed to another country. She was 159 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:13,240 Speaker 4: extremely concerned about his well being and if he was 160 00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 4: gonna make it, and how things were going. She was 161 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:18,400 Speaker 4: so concerned and so worked up that I saw it 162 00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:22,720 Speaker 4: begin to change her disposition, change her personality. She could 163 00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:26,199 Speaker 4: hardly even function at work. And I said to her, 164 00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:28,120 Speaker 4: I said, look, there's got to be a better way 165 00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 4: to handle this situation. I mean, he is there. There 166 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:33,439 Speaker 4: is not a thing that you can do about it. 167 00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:37,120 Speaker 4: You've got to come to this place of peace and 168 00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:40,480 Speaker 4: rest in the Lord. So I began to pray with her, 169 00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:43,400 Speaker 4: and then I began to make some suggestions. I said, look, 170 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:45,960 Speaker 4: you need to get some scriptures. You need to have 171 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 4: them ready. Just as your warfare. When these thoughts start 172 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:53,840 Speaker 4: strangling your joy and your peace, you need to write 173 00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:58,360 Speaker 4: out some declarations. When you feel that tension coming against you, 174 00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:00,439 Speaker 4: you need to say God, thank you that my son 175 00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:03,480 Speaker 4: is in the palm of your hand. Thank you Father, 176 00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:07,000 Speaker 4: that no weapon formed against him will prosper. Father, thank you, 177 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:10,200 Speaker 4: your angels have charge over him to keep him in 178 00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:13,839 Speaker 4: all of his ways. He won't even dash his foot 179 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:16,680 Speaker 4: against the stone, but he'll tread upon the lion and 180 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:20,640 Speaker 4: the cobra, the young lions shall he trample underfoot. Thank 181 00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:23,040 Speaker 4: you Father, you put a bloodline around him that the 182 00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:24,760 Speaker 4: enemy cannot cross. 183 00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:25,480 Speaker 3: Father. 184 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:30,240 Speaker 4: I thank you Lord that my son will come home safely. 185 00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:34,800 Speaker 4: I begin to see her put this into practice. Little 186 00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:38,320 Speaker 4: by little, she began to take control over that worry, 187 00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:41,080 Speaker 4: and I could see the strength come back. I could 188 00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:45,559 Speaker 4: see her focus and her resolve come back. She began 189 00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:50,400 Speaker 4: to praise God in the midst of her fear and 190 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:55,679 Speaker 4: her torment, and it made all the difference in her life. 191 00:11:55,880 --> 00:12:01,120 Speaker 4: You see, worry pulls us away from God's power, but 192 00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:06,240 Speaker 4: worship and praise draws us to him and it changes 193 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:13,840 Speaker 4: the situation. I have a good news to report. Six 194 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:18,840 Speaker 4: years servant in the military, and her son came home safely. 195 00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:26,000 Speaker 4: He came home safely. You see, worries of weight, it 196 00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:29,480 Speaker 4: weighs us down, causes us to not be productive. In fact, 197 00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:33,880 Speaker 4: the Bible says, lay aside every weight that would so 198 00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:38,599 Speaker 4: easily beset us come on us. So you have to 199 00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:40,600 Speaker 4: lay it aside because it says that you have to 200 00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:44,679 Speaker 4: run with purpose in every step. And when you are 201 00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:48,600 Speaker 4: weighed down, you can't run. My sweet friend was so 202 00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:52,160 Speaker 4: rayed down she couldn't hardly get to work, much less run. 203 00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:56,480 Speaker 4: You see, when she began to lay aside that weight, 204 00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:02,319 Speaker 4: she was able to run out her purpose. See her prayers. 205 00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:06,679 Speaker 4: Her intercession for her son was much more powerful than 206 00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:09,240 Speaker 4: her worry. When she talked to him on the phone, 207 00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:11,480 Speaker 4: she could say, son, I want to tell you, I'm 208 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:14,120 Speaker 4: praying for you. The angels of the Lords have charge 209 00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:17,280 Speaker 4: over you. You walk out and you be bold with confidence. 210 00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:21,080 Speaker 4: Know that God Almighty is looking after you, she could 211 00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 4: encourage him to pray for himself. You see, when she 212 00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:29,080 Speaker 4: began to lay aside the weight and run with purpose, 213 00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:33,640 Speaker 4: she was way more effective. There's a technique that I use, 214 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:36,360 Speaker 4: and I've used it for years and it works for me. 215 00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 4: You just got to find something that works for you, right. So, 216 00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:44,479 Speaker 4: when I had these concerns in these troubles, I imagine 217 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:49,559 Speaker 4: a big helium balloon, big beautiful balloon, red red balloon. 218 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:53,839 Speaker 4: It's a power color. And I've again to put those 219 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:58,200 Speaker 4: troubles in that balloon. And I imagine myself holding that 220 00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:01,560 Speaker 4: balloon by this string, holding it out in front of me, 221 00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:04,320 Speaker 4: with those troubles. And I look at that balloon and 222 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:06,800 Speaker 4: I let it go and I release it to God, 223 00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:09,160 Speaker 4: and I say, God, thank you that you're bigger than 224 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:13,280 Speaker 4: all these troubles. Thank you that you love me, and 225 00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:16,120 Speaker 4: that you said you'd perfect those things that concern me. 226 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 4: So I'm gonna give them to you. These troubles are 227 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:23,240 Speaker 4: just gonna go right at your feet, Jesus, You're gonna 228 00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:27,760 Speaker 4: take care of them. You see, sometimes I have to admit, 229 00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:30,880 Speaker 4: sometimes I have to let go of a whole bouquet 230 00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:35,040 Speaker 4: of balloons. Do what you gotta do. Do what you 231 00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 4: gotta do to release the worry and the care, because 232 00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:45,920 Speaker 4: Jesus will sustain you when you release it to him. Listen, 233 00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:50,680 Speaker 4: if you feel the pressure, the stranglehold of worry coming 234 00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 4: on you, even if it's automatic, push the pause button. 235 00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:58,720 Speaker 4: Let's be like Mary. Let's take a lesson from this 236 00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:02,840 Speaker 4: woman and let's sit at his feet. Let's linger there 237 00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:07,560 Speaker 4: for a while. Let's empty out the concerns so that 238 00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:12,200 Speaker 4: we'll have room to receive His goodness, his thoughts towards us, 239 00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:17,720 Speaker 4: his wisdom, his joy. Listen. Wait is only going to 240 00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:22,080 Speaker 4: weigh you down, but when you let it go to him, 241 00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:25,400 Speaker 4: all things can be new again.
