Anxiety does not empty tomorrow of its sorrows, but only empties today of its strength. (C. H. Spurgeon, 19th century British preacher)

Do we worry more now than we used to, or does it just seem that way? Has life become so complex and uncertain, that more and more people are anxious about their lives and circumstances?

Life was never intended to be that way.

Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. (Philippians 4:6)
