Spiritual HeartCheck - Worry

Scripture Anchor:

Matthew 6:34 – “Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.”

Use the following self-reflective questions to assess the presence and impact of worry in your spiritual life.

Look beyond your initial response. We have a tendency to protect ourselves from the harsh realities. The Spiritual HeartCheck is designed to promote spiritual growth, not to condemn you.
