I've noticed that worrying is like praying for what you don't want to happen.
Worrying is like praying for something you don't want to happen. I have such an overwhelming sense that if you're in the right state of heart, the next right thing appears to you.
When you're worrying you're not praying. Stop worrying start praying.
One of the lessons of 2016 is to spend less time worrying about what will happen and more time worrying about what we want to happen.
In a way. Magic is the act of making a wish come about. Like praying, like plotting, like herbs, like exerting your will on the world, making something happen.
None but praying leaders can have praying followers. A praying pulpit will beget praying pews. We do greatly need pastors and evangelists who will set the saints to this business of praying. We are not a generation of praying saints. Who will restore this breach? The greatest will he be of reformers who can set the Church to praying.
If you're praying, you're not worrying, and if you're worrying, you're not praying!
I know this sounds incredibly lame,
but I don't want losing my virginity
to feel like I'm losing something.
I want it to feel like I'm finding something.
I want sex to be amazing.
I want it to be life-alteringly wonderful.
And I want it to happen with someone I love.
If the worst is going to happen, it'll happen. Worrying can't protect you from that. And if it doesn't happen then you've missed out on all the time that when you could have been having fun
I can't live my life worrying about something that might never happen.
If somebody tells me they want something or they want something to happen and if it's in my power to make it happen, I start working on it thinking they meant it.
Praying puts us at risk of getting involved in God's conditions. Be slow to pray. Praying most often doesn't get us what we want but what God wants, something quite at variance with what we conceive to be in our best interests.
Why would you live your life worrying about something that's not going to happen?
You can't start worrying about what's going to happen. You get spastic enough worrying about what's happening now.
I've played a worrying number of orphans, children who have been abandoned or had something terrible happen to them.
Now and again, you may be picking a pass or two in behind, making something happen, but when we're attacking - especially at Liverpool - I'm focusing on protection, being disciplined, being careful, worrying about counter-attacks, things like that.
