  • To the cemetery long before their time.
  • 00:10:58.018 --> 00:10:59.720
  • Before their time. christians who claim to follow
  • 00:10:59.786 --> 00:11:01.288
  • Christians who claim to follow the prince of peace,
  • 00:11:01.354 --> 00:11:02.489
  • The prince of peace, yet they live in
  • 00:11:02.556 --> 00:11:03.457
  • Yet they live in emotional turmoil.
  • 00:11:03.523 --> 00:11:05.726
  • Emotional turmoil. that doesn't go together.
  • 00:11:05.792 --> 00:11:08.128
  • That doesn't go together. worry has no place in
  • 00:11:08.195 --> 00:11:09.596
  • Worry has no place in the life of a believer.
  • 00:11:09.663 --> 00:11:11.431
  • The life of a believer. stop it.
  • 00:11:11.498 --> 00:11:13.166

  • Think about good things, talk about good things.
  • 00:11:16.536 --> 00:11:18.271
  • Talk about good things. we need to be warned against
  • 00:11:18.338 --> 00:11:19.673
  • We need to be warned against worry because
  • 00:11:19.740 --> 00:11:20.507
  • Worry because it's absolutely useless.
  • 00:11:20.574 --> 00:11:22.042
  • It's absolutely useless. jesus said,
  • 00:11:22.109 --> 00:11:22.909
  • Jesus said, "which one of you can add
  • 00:11:22.976 --> 00:11:25.011
  • "which one of you can add a cubit to your
  • 00:11:25.078 --> 00:11:27.080
  • A cubit to your stature by worry?"
  • 00:11:27.147 --> 00:11:29.649
  • Stature by worry?" worry is useless.
  • 00:11:29.716 --> 00:11:31.251
  • Worry is useless. be anxious about nothing.
  • 00:11:31.318 --> 00:11:32.953
  • Be anxious about nothing. worry has never solved
  • 00:11:33.019 --> 00:11:34.721
  • Worry has never solved a single problem.
  • 00:11:34.788 --> 00:11:36.690
  • A single problem. it has never lifted
  • 00:11:36.757 --> 00:11:38.058
  • It has never lifted a single burden.
  • 00:11:38.125 --> 00:11:39.593
  • A single burden. it has never
  • 00:11:39.659 --> 00:11:40.794
  • It has never dried a single tear.
  • 00:11:40.861 --> 00:11:42.729
  • Dried a single tear. worry has never provided
  • 00:11:42.796 --> 00:11:44.264
  • Worry has never provided one answer for anyone, not ever.
  • 00:11:44.331 --> 00:11:47.701
  • One answer for anyone, not ever. don't worry.
  • 00:11:47.768 --> 00:11:49.603
  • Don't worry. we ought never to worry
  • 00:11:49.669 --> 00:11:51.204
  • We ought never to worry about things you can change.
  • 00:11:51.271 --> 00:11:53.673
  • About things you can change. have you ever laid in bed
  • 00:11:53.740 --> 00:11:54.908
  • Have you ever laid in bed on a cold winter's night?
  • 00:11:54.975 --> 00:11:56.276
  • On a cold winter's night? you're cold,
  • 00:11:56.343 --> 00:11:56.843
  • You're cold, and you're shivering,
  • 00:11:56.910 --> 00:11:57.811
  • And you're shivering, and there's a blanket
  • 00:11:57.878 --> 00:11:58.945
  • And there's a blanket about six feet away?

  • You didn't wanna get up and get it because
  • 00:12:02.949 --> 00:12:04.351
  • And get it because you didn't wanna move.
  • 00:12:04.417 --> 00:12:06.019
  • You didn't wanna move. it is easier to lay there
  • 00:12:06.086 --> 00:12:08.121
  • It is easier to lay there and worry the rest of the night.
  • 00:12:08.188 --> 00:12:10.891
  • And worry the rest of the night. there's a solution,
  • 00:12:10.957 --> 00:12:11.758
  • There's a solution, do something about it.
  • 00:12:11.825 --> 00:12:13.293
  • Do something about it. tell your wife
  • 00:12:13.360 --> 00:12:13.994

  • The future is a mystery, there's only today.
  • 00:12:33.346 --> 00:12:35.148
  • There's only today. that's why it's
  • 00:12:35.215 --> 00:12:35.849
  • That's why it's called the present.
  • 00:12:35.916 --> 00:12:37.984
  • Called the present. it's a gift from god.

  • Jesus walked into the temple
  • 00:12:44.591 --> 00:12:46.326
  • And found a sense of greed
  • 00:12:46.326 --> 00:12:48.728
  • And corruption.
  • 00:12:48.728 --> 00:12:49.529
