This morning I'm speaking on what Jesus said about worry in Matthew 6:25-34. He explained five ways we can win over worry:
“Don’t worry, be logical.” If God takes care of birds and flowers, he’ll take care of you (verses 25-26; 28-30).The message is posted online Monday (iTunes; website). With an outline like that, what else could I have chosen for this week's "Song of the Week"? Here's Bobby McFerrin's 1988 Grammy-winning one-hit wonder, "Don't Worry, Be Happy"--
“Don’t worry, be practical.” Worry doesn’t work (verse 27).
“Don’t worry, be realistic.” Stick to one day at a time (verse 34).
“Don’t worry, be trustful.” Your Father knows what you need (verses 31-32).
“Don’t worry, be focused.” Get your mind on completing your life’s mission (verse 33).
Here is a little song I wrote
You might want to sing it note for note
Don't worry be happyIn every life we have some trouble
When you worry you make it double
Don't worry, be happy.
Ain't got no place to lay your head
Somebody came and took your bed
Don't worry, be happyThe landlord say your rent is late
He may have to litigate
Don't worry, be happy
(Lood at me I am happy)
Don't worry, be happy
(Here I give you my phone number
When you worry call me
I make you happy)
Don't worry, be happyAin't got no cash, ain't got no style
Ain't got not girl to make you smile
But don't worry be happyCause when you worry
Your face will frown
And that will bring everybody down
So don't worry, be happy (now).
There is this little song I wrote
I hope you learn it note for note
(Like good little children)
Don't worry, be happyListen to what I say
In your life expect some trouble
But when you worry you make it double
Don't worry, be happy.Don't worry (don't do it), be happy
Put a smile on your face
Don't bring everybody down like this
Don't worry, it will soon past
Whatever it is
Don't worry, be happy.
