Matthew 6:27 - The Misery of Worry.

Matthew 6:27 (NLT) Can all your worries add 
a single moment to your life?  

COMMENTARY PEARL

   A friend of mine whos a doctor told me 
theres actually a condition called broken heart 
syndrome. Its also known as octopus heart, because 
it affects the shape of the heart. 
   Sudden bad news, such as the death of a 
loved one or some other traumatic event, can cause 
fear, fright, and anxiety. When these take hold of 
us, the tip of our hearts enlarge immediately, 
and it can result in depression, chest pain, 
heart failure, or even death. 
   So worry may actually shorten our lives. 
Sometimes we might even think its a virtue to 
worry, but it isnt. Worry doesnt resolve 
problems; it simply creates new ones. Worry doesnt 
make life longer; it just makes it more 
miserable. 
   Jesus said, Can all your worries add a 
single moment to your life? (Matthew 6:27 NLT). 
   Yet some people are trying to extend 
their lives using the latest technology. I read an 
article the other day about a number of billionaires 
who are trying to find a cure for aging. One 
billionaire wants to have a microchip connected to his 
brain. 
   Meanwhile, other billionaires are having 
blood transfusions from healthy people between the 
ages of 16 and 25, believing it will reverse the 
aging process. 
   These things will not extend your life. 
God determines the date of your birth and the 
date of your death. But you have a say about what 
happens in between. Someone wisely pointed out that 
life is not measured by its duration but by its 
donation. 
   Dont worry so much about how long you 
will live. Instead, think about how you are 
living. Every morning God deposits 1,440 minutes 
into your bank of time. You choose how to spend 
those minutes. Think about what youre doing 
with this precious commodity called time that God 
gives each of us every day. [Greg Laurie from
