No Worries

The branch of the vine does not worry, and toil, and rush here to seek for sunshine, and there to find rain. No; it rests in union and communion with the vine; and at the right time, and in the right way, is the right fruit found on it. Let us so abide in the Lord Jesus.



--Hudson Taylor (1832-1905, British Christian missionary to China, and founder of the China Inland Mission [CIM, now OMF International]. Taylor spent 51 years in China.).
 
Worry, in its hand wringing, tearful extreme, is a sign of clinging to this life. Remember Jesus' words: "The man who loves his life will lose it, while the man who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life." (Jn 12:25 NIV)
