My Father Said to Me

My Father Said to Me

My father tried to teach each of his children those great lessons he learned in his long life, some from the crucible of failure. Here is one.

His mother, an exemplary Christian, had a weakness in the area of worry. She fought it and worked to turn her worries into prayer. It was a besetting sin, often showing up to hassle her. My father fought against worry also. He considered worry to be a true battleground in his life. I can still see him telling me the simple truth I’ve express below, hoping it would help me.
