Generations are looking for answers with substance. The song that says ''DON'T WORRY BE HAPPY'' by Bobby Mcferrin invites us to stop worrying while listing out some things we do worry about. Like those medical issues we see or have experienced the cure may seems scarier than the disease itself.
As we grow older, the number of things to worry about increases , time changes but people don't. There's a bible verse that says ''remember your creator in the days of your youth before the days of trouble comes and the year approaches when you will say, i find no pleasure in them (Ecc 12:1)''. He also listed the ailments that are attached to old age that leads to reduce of our ability to enjoy life as we once did, but in all of this things i would say to you Don't worry, just be happy.
When it seems we are earning low and the government has made us loose hope in them and even our families has also abandoned us let your heart not be troubled because God's promises for us will never fail nor abandon us. Do not worry about what you will eat, drink, what you will wear etc just sing this song Don't worry, be happy.
Most times we worry about our tomorrow, but do not worry because tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble on its own. Place your trust in God for he said he will supply all of our needs according to his riches in glory. If you don't think that God can and will handle your needs, do you believe or think worrying will do?. Can worrying add a single hour to your life, if you don't have it, we don't need it but if we need it we will have it it will seems simple but all you have to do is to have the positive spirit and put your trust in God.
MOST UNNECESSARY WORRIES:
Most times we search for problems to give ourselves stress. The amazing news is that much of what we worry about doesn't matter at all. Take a look at this :
- 40% of all things that we worry about never come to pass.
- 30% of all our worries involve past decisions that cannot be changed.
- 12% of all our worries are focused on criticism from others who have spoke because they feel inferior.
- 10% are related to health issues which get worse when we worry.
- 8% of our worries could be described as''legitimate'' causes for concern.
Isn't this amazing?. Fewer than one problem in every ten that we worry about is a real concern, all the others are things that we can learn to see differently or eliminate them.
Many disease conditions including hypertension and ulcer have been related to worry, so not only worrying is an act of disobedience and lack of faith, it is also not good for your health. Leave healthy and stop worrying.

This is beautiful, am happy to read this wonderful piece. I don't play with that great song from Bob, i love to hear it always, its drives worries from my mind. We may not totally avoid being worried because we humans full of emotions but how to manage our the trial of worries would go a long way to salvage us from causing more harm than good.
