Why doesn’t God want us to worry?

What is the root cause of worry for a Christian?  The root of anxiety is unbelief, the anxiety that we feel is ultimately caused by a lack of trust in God.  “Worry is a form of atheism, for it betrays a lack of faith and trust in God.” Attributed to Bishop Fulton J. Sheen.

1 John 4:18  18 There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.  Romans 8:

How do I stop worrying?  Decide to trust you Heavenly Father (with a revelation of His love and power)

Jeremiah 17:7 - 8  7 “But blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in him. 8 They will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit.”

Isaiah 26:3 -  3 You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you. 4 Trust in the Lord forever, for the Lord, the Lord himself, is the Rock eternal.
