WORRIES
Today's reading: Mark 15-16

You are up preparing to head out to church.

You've showered, dressed, applied make-up and fixed your hair. You've gathered your Bible, your Sunday School book and your purse. You've herded the family in to the car and you're off.

But you're worried about a few things--and those few things are getting in the way of your heart being prepared to worship. Your thoughts are filled with undone things, bothersome particulars and un-nerving leanings.

You are not alone. Today, or historically.

"Very early on Sunday morning just at sunrise, they came to the tomb. On the way they were discussing who would roll the stone away from the entrance to the tomb." Mark 16:2-3 NLT

They so wanted to worship Christ with this one last attempt. The women desired to annoint His body with spices and their dedication. The servants attempted to serve. But all the while, worries distracted their attention.

They were worrying about things God had already tended to!

Chances are, you are, too.
