Do Not Worry
Sometimes, as humans, we forget that God has everything in His hands and under His control. The Bible tells us very specifically not to worry. And if we can just get that point – Do Not Worry – our lives will be so much better!
Matthew 6:25-34, Do not worry.
25“Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes?26Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?27Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life?
28“And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labor or spin.29Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendorwas dressed like one of these.30If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you—you of little faith?
31So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’32For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them.33But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.34Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
“Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added unto you.”
Matthew 6:33
When we are going through difficult times, all we have to do is turn it over to God, ‘seek His kingdom and His righteousness’ and He will see to our needs. Turning our worries over to God eases our lives, eases our pain and worry. When He takes over, we can relax.
