Worry vs Trust
Worrying does help—for 95% of the things that we worry about do not happen! It is as if our worrying about them has such magical effect on them that those events disappear! But the problem is: worry, our magical solution to making them disappear, leaves us with ulcer in the stomach and a high blood pressure! The only effective way to get rid of our worries is to learn to trust. In fact, psychologist Eric Erikson marked “basic trust” which develops (or fails to develop) in the initial years of our life on earth as fundamental to our well-being through our entire life span. We can also add on to this initial trust capital by modelling our life after that of Christ: He hardly worried about anything, for he totally trusted the will of the Father. Did it make his problems disappear? No, each day brought enough troubles for him as well. But he faced them with faith and trust in the Father’s love and providence.
