Anxiety is sin, but non-anxiety can be too.

If you're not aware, anxiety is sin. Check out Matthew 6 ('do not worry' isn't a suggestion) and Philippians 4:6-7.

God convicted me of something while praying today: non-anxiety can also be sin. Phil. 4:6 says, "Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God."

Now, my car broke down yesterday. I didn't stress. But God showed me something else - I didn't pray. I didn't thank.

But now I praise God for conviction and forgiveness!
