ANTIDOTE TO WORRY AND ANXIETY 

            Connie Mack is one of the greatest managers in the history of baseball. One of the secrets of his success was his ability to lead and inspire men and ward off worry and anxiety. Mack never criticized a player in front of anyone else. He learned to wait 24 hours before discussing mistakes with players. In the first three years as a major league baseball manager, his teams finishes sixth, seven, and eight he took the blame and demoted himself to the minor league to give himself time to learn how to handle men. When he came back to the major league again, he handle his players his players so successfully that he developed the best team the world had ever known. Had he not realize the evils of worry, he would not have achieved that milestone as a baseball manager.                                                                                                    Truly, worry and anxiety are two tools that Satan uses to hinder the blessing of many people. They often start as intense and excessively persistent fear or concern about situation around us. It may cause restlessness, rapid breathing and feeling of tiredness. Worry and anxiety have made many to give up hope just before their divinely appointed time of breakthrough. They compel one to seek help in wrong places and to go back to the things left behind.                                                                                                                               Unfortunately, worry and anxiety do not solve any problem. Rather, they aggravate it. Many people have developed high blood pressure, depression and other medical and psychological problems because of worry and anxiety. These have a way of weakening individual. None should think that his situation is so bad that there is no remedy. One must pray and have faith and expect His miraculous intervention in every challenging situation of life instead of putting their trust in man. You should not build your lives in human promises because they can fail you at any given time. God can be your pillar of hope, when you rely on his promises and have faith; He will create a way where there is no way.
