Anxiety and Priorities

Nearly 31% of all adults will experience an anxiety disorder at some point in their lives. And nearly all of us have allowed worry to affect us in unhealthy ways. Jesus is concerned about the anxiety that we experience because it distracts and derails us from God's goodness, purpose, and joy for our lives. So he not only tells us to not be anxious but, in Matthew 6, gives us powerful reasons why we are not to worry. In this teaching he also gives us the antidote to our anxiety.
