Send us Fan MailDon’t Worry Be Godly25 Worry weighs a person down;     an encouraging word cheers a person up.26 The godly give good advice to their friends;[a]     the wicked lead them astray.Verse 25This verse expresses sympathy. A person who worries is sad. Life can be hard. People fear many things.As Christians, we should look after other people. We should speak words of kindness and sympathy. We should speak words that encourage. We should tell people to trust God. Then we shall bring joy into people’s lives.Verse 26Other people benefit when someone respects God. People can learn from us. Our lives can teach people about God. This is like a man who leads his friend on a journey.Life is like a journey. But an evil man is like a traveller who has no guide. This traveller must guide himself on his journey. He does not know the correct route, so he will go the wrong way. So the evil man will do the wrong things. He will suffer because his actions are evil.So, there are a lot of anxious folks out there, right? Well, Proverbs gives us a simple solution: just say something nice.
