Introduction
What do I worry about? What am I anxious about?
I. Why You Worry
A. You Want to be in Control
B. You Are Laying Up Treasure for Yourself
“A worrier is storing ‘treasure' in the wrong
place. If what you most value can be taken away or
destroyed, then you set yourself up for anxiety.
Money? health? a particular friendship? the dream of
marriage? success in sports or business? how your
children turn out? Even when you feel good, when
everything's going your way, you're building your
house on sand. Your treasure is vulnerable. And
whenever what is ‘precious' to you is threatened,
you'll be gripped with fear. Guaranteed.” David
Powlison
