Why is, "God's got this," not enough? Why do we say we believe and yet misuse our brain power and our heart strength in concern for future outcomes that we cannot or should not control by any amount of concern? It is a misuse of the same sentience that God made us in His image. Seeing future events, planning, dreaming, and being able to change certain outcomes, all are aspects of our God-given personhood. Moreover, we sometimes feel these things in our soul. When this ability is corrupted and applied against us or applied by us in a wrong fashion we lose the very freedom that Christ died for. When freedom is overcome by fear and doubt, by anxiety and worry, we should turn to the Lord and be changed. When we experience a supernatural expression of out of control concern we should rebuke it and stand firm in the faith. But it feels so hard because it is our God-given greatness put to misuse. The same thing that traps us MUST be submitted to Christ for His use to set us free.
Matthew 6:34 NASB1995
[34] “So do not worry about tomorrow; for tomorrow will care for itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
