The opposite of worry is trust.
The more you trust God to make the right thing happen, the less you worry about the wrong thing happening.
Like the sun keeps shining, God keeps making good things happen. Thought open to this truth experiences this truth.
Trust in God, rather than in worry. You’ll start to notice the right thing happening.
Just exactly what I needed this morning. Thank you!
Thank you Evan.
“Worrying about symptoms?” By Nathan Talbot. From the April 23, 2015 issue of The Christian Science Monitor:

Thanks for supplying the article, J.
After reading it, I realize how far I’m coming along in my studies of CS.
I am stronger in dismissing symptoms to the point I no longer notice them, give no power to them—-it’s only when someone else makes a comment about me that could be categorized as a “symptom”, that I am alerted to something to be handled. There just is no worry about sypmtoms in me now. I certainly don’t want to be expressing a false image of God, so now i am quicker to get to work on it—-no worry involved, just trust in God to show me myself in Him.
You’re welcome Susan, and wonderful thoughts! I especially love the truth that God is not worrying. I also can’t imagine Spirit being fearful, sick, or anything else…it’s simply an impossibility.
A favorite Dorothy Holder Jones quote: “…But this is the revolutionary nature of scientific metaphysics. It denies the evidence of the senses. It disbelieve their lies. Challenging as this approach may be, it its the correct one, for if the spiritual is real, the material is unreal. And what Is unreal cannot be improved or changed; it can only be recognized as unreal – that is, disbelieved.”
As I am becoming stronger in Christian Science, I find there is nothing, no thing, I worry about.
There is nothing to worry sbout.
There is no worry.
God has no worries, does not worry, and based on His Good, Perfect Creation, what could there ever be to worry sbout?!?
My trust in God’s laws operating in my life, now supply, correct, govern, heal (I could go on forever), anything that another might find to worry about until they too learn to trust and rely on God.
Love it Susan!❤️
Worry is the antipode of trust. If we find ourselves worrying we know that is a signal that we need to strengthen our trust in God. “ Trust the eternal, “ is the first line in one of our hymns.
This was just what I needed today. I love the idea of expecting good, not evil in the sense of expecting good things from God to happen, not bad things. It seems so simple. KISS
Great point, Evan. Just don’t try to define the “right thing”. My mom always said “Let go and let God”.
Love it. Thank for this crisp and clear message.
