When you worry, remember that it shouldn’t be a one man or one woman activity.
You may not want to burden a friend or spouse with something that is worrying you, but even Jesus when things got tough and dirty called in his friends, his disciples.
He did it in the Garden of Gethsemane.
He did it at the Last Supper. The humanity in Him knew it was a time to share, to confide.
Talking about your problem with some-one close can also help your perspective.
Otherwise, it is always the problem of not being able to see the forest because of the tree.
You can be so overwrought you put a wrong slant to the thing that’s worrying you, or you may have misinterpreted the problem.
Maybe the other person has gone through what you are going through or something similar. It is a mathematical solution really, two points of view are always better than just one.
Would you ease your own anxieties?
Then pause and try placing your problems and anxieties second in line while considering the problems and anxieties of someone else.
That’s right. Just in case you’re not sure you heard me correctly,
I did just say you need to think and pray about someone else’s problems even when you already have enough of your own. That’s a tall order, but it is truly the best way to keep from being overwhelmed by self pity.
