Watchman: Daily Devotional, Anxiety Weighs Down the Heart, but a Kind Word Cheers It Up. Proverbs 12:25–The Power of Kindness
People’s Lives and Hearts Today Seem to Be Filled With a Tremendous Amount of Conflict
SRH:
People's lives and hearts today seem to be filled with a great deal of unrest. People are worried out everywhere. Anxious. They are quick to voice their ideas. There are financial concerns. People are complaining and being angry with organizations more than ever before.
It might be overwhelming to see how many concerns and problems there are in the world when we read the daily news. There are numerous factors that can trigger anxiety.
These problems and concerns weigh heavily on the heart. The more we linger on our worries, the less free we feel, even if we may not always be aware of their effects.
When Jesus discussed life's concerns, he reassured his listeners that their heavenly Father was aware of all of their needs and would take care of them. Jesus admonished followers, "Seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things shall be given to you as well."
Because tomorrow will worry about itself, avoid worrying now (Matthew 6:33–34). These wonderful comments also apply to us. They provide us the opportunity to live free from worry by putting our faith in God to handle our future.
Are there any worries or fears that you might need to give to God today? Our ability to show people his love and kindness increases when we give him our troubles. For someone who is stressed out, this ability can literally move mountains.
Please, kind God, take away my anxiousness so I can spread Jesus' peace and love to everyone around me. Amen.

The Watchman
In the Bible, the Watchman is responsible for keeping watch and warning others of potential danger or impending judgment. The role is mentioned several times in the Old Testament, particularly in the book of Ezekiel. In Ezekiel 33:6, God says to the prophet Ezekiel, "But if the watchman sees the sword coming and does not blow the trumpet, so that the people are not warned, and the sword comes and takes any one of them, that person is taken away in his iniquity, but his blood I will require at the watchman's hand."
