“WHY DO YOU WORRY?”

Matthew 6:25-34

Anxiety is the most prevalent cause of emotional distress. Anxiety can be defined as a

state of uneasiness and apprehension, particularly about future uncertainties. It suggests

feelings of fear, doubt, worry, helplessness, distress, tension, care, deep concern, and

solicitude. (Solicitude is active and sometimes excessive concern for another’s well-being.)

Anxiety is that inner anguish over a matter that may or may not happen.

Th ere is a multitude of reasons why anxiety is such a major medical, psychological,

and social issue. The anxiety treatment and development of drugs and therapies for anxiety and

its attendant illnesses is a $250 billion-dollar global business. There are a lot of fearful,

distressed, and worried people in the world today.
