Stop Worrying and Start Living : 365 Reflections

Every day is a new opportunity to say yes to life—and no to worry.

After years of panic attacks, digestive problems, heart palpitations, and sleepless nights, author Gary Zimak discovered that a personal relationship with Jesus keeps his worrying under control and fills him with peace. And he believes that what works for him can work for you, too.

Whether you're facing financial hardships, health issues, personal insecurities, or the million and one little things that keep you up at night, God wants you to know that he has a plan for your happiness and peace. He can see you through anything—even your anxiety! When we listen to God's voice in the Bible, speak to him in prayer, and spend time in his presence, our lives change in powerful ways. These daily reflections will help you do just that. It's time to stop worrying and start living!
