Empowering Worry Quotes

I'd like to share 25 of the best, most empowering and inspiring quotes from the past few thousands of years about worrying and what to do about it.

Obama joked that he had to quote an Irish poet in his speech, but that he could not use a famous Seamus Heaney line as Biden often looks to the Northern Irishman for his own addresses. "And Seamus Heaney in one of his poems said - when you can find someone who says it better, use it – he said, 'You carried your own burden and very soon, your symptoms of creeping privilege disappeared'," Biden said.

But when we walk in Christ's righteousness-when we abide in him-he carries our burdens.

These are all burdens – the things we pick up along life's path and lug them around the obstacles and over the crevasses that life will bring; only to find that, at the destination they are useless and we can't take them with us.
