There is so much about life in a fallen world that is a cause for worry. Just in the last few weeks, we have witnessed thousands lose their lives through natural disasters in Maui, Morocco, and Libya alone. And much, much more! What are we to do? All of us condemn it; most of us entertain it; some of us fight it — we worry! The Bible teaches us that when we understand God's big picture better, we are able to put worry aside regarding things that only He can change so that we may enjoy the many wonderful things He has given us.

Ecclesiastes 8:14 "There is a vanity that takes place on earth, that there are righteous people to whom it happens according to the deeds of the wicked, and there are wicked people to whom it happens according to the deeds of the righteous. I said that this also is vanity." (ESV)
