The Circle of Faith and Fear


Worry is the physical manifestation of lack of faith in my opinion. Faith and Fear can't inhabit the same space as some wise person once said.

Just yesterday I was meditating on this subject and it occurred to me just how weird this cycle can be. Scripture tells us to have faith and not to worry. But many times we worry. Then we worry so much that we start to pray for help with what we are worrying about.

Now here is where it gets weird. Who are we praying to? God. Why? Because we have faith that He will answer our prayers. Really? If we have that much faith that He will answer our prayers then why didn't we simply use that faith as God instructed us to do and not worry to begin with???

We make God's job so much harder don't we?
