Worry is a Rocking Horse

Refrain from worrying! -  sometimes it is easier said than done.  And it is a struggle for me too. Good thing, we are always reminded  by the Scriptures.

Worrying does not take away tomorrow's troubles; it takes away today's peace. ~author unknown

Do not confuse motion and progress. A rocking horse keeps moving but does not make any progress.~Alfred A. Montapert

When I look back on all these worries, I remember the story of the old man who said on his deathbed that he had had a lot of trouble in his life, most of which had never happened ~Winston Churchill

Every tomorrow has two handles. We can take hold of it with the handle of anxiety or the handle of faith. ~Henry Ward Beecher

Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat; or about your body, what you will wear. For life is more than food, and the body more than clothes. ~Jesus (Luke 12:22-23)
