Do Not Worry

Matthew 6:25-34



Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing?
Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?

Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature? So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toll nor spin; and yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?

Therefore do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?' For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things.

But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.

Therefore, do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.



I was reminded that we do not have to worry about anything because my God is my provider. He is Jehovah Jireh (Provider) after all. He will supply ALL my needs. He knows what's best there is for me. Even though things may not seem like how you want them to be, know that it's not about you and your plans. It is about Him and His great plans for us. We just have to trust on Him and listen carefully on what He has to say. Whatever happens, at the end of the day, you will figure it out. God works in different ways. He thinks differently. So, don't expect a casual happening. Expect an extraordinary thing. He is God! (I love the phrase 'O you of little faith' in this scripture...it makes me realize how indeed I underestimate Him . I need to put ALL my trust and just have faith in Him).

May God bless you and keep you safe, always.
