Walking with Jesus

Matthew 6:25 - 34

Jesus told his disciples not to worry about anything including tomorrow or the future because tomorrow or the future will worry about itself. In other words there are enough troubles that the day is carrying so there is no use adding to the load. Jesus told us that God provides for the birds of the air and the lilies of the field and how much more will He provide for us. We only need to trust God and pray about our every need believing that He is faithful and will keep His promises. What we will eat, drink or wear are all His concern and none of these should be a source of worry for us. God has value for us and thinks about us and everything that is of concern to us is of concern to Him. We cannot add anything to our lives by worrying. Worrying rather takes so much from us - emotionally, physically, mentally and in many ways. Worry deprives us or the joy that we should have and causes many illnesses. Jesus told us to seek first God's kingdom and His righteousness and all things will be added or given to us as well. May God help us to be obedient to His word and live a worry-free life. Amen
