Lailah Gifty AkitaWorry less, pray more.
About This Quote
The idea that you should worry less and pray more is a popular misconception. In fact, both worry and prayer can be very therapeutic, in fact. Worrying less and praying more can help one identify the source of their problems and find a solution to their worries. On the other hand, however, worrying too much can create a lot of stress for a person.
In addition, if your prayers are answered by someone with whom you have very little spiritual connection, you can end up feeling disappointed in God. This is because prayers are meant to be answered by God himself. It’s not possible for anyone else to answer your prayers.
