Trying to make head or tail of this, and on the advice of a friend, I am trying to work my way through the T.N.I.V (Todays new international version) of the bible.

Where to start? Well me being me I turned to the New Testament first as everyone knows about the birth of Jesus, and start to scan through- this is what I was drawn to

Do not worry

Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Can anyone of you by worrying add a single hour to your life?

This I felt, was me, and it was being spoken to me, I am the worrier, I constantly have turmoil inside my head. This paragraph has helped me tremendously, I can't begin to explain the calmness I have felt. In some parts I felt that it was quite harsh, but the point is made.

It finishes by saying - Do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.

Why is that so calming to me?
