30. Don’t Worry – July 18
It’s not easy to not worry but some years ago I wrote a very short song and the words went like this:
I am held in prayer time,
Circled round by love.
God’s words are clear,
Speak to my heart,
Don’t worry, I will never let you go.
Don’t worry, I will never let you go.
Don’t worry, I will never let you go.

It reminds me a little of that last verse of the hymn How Firm a Foundation which I wrote about in #9. If you remember in that hymn God promises to never forsake or desert you. I think that’s the same as “I will never let you go.”
I still worry about some things but if I believe it as God’s promise to me, then I also believe it as God’s promise to the person about whom I’m worrying.
It’s called Good News.
