Don't Worry... PT1
Fear, worry, anxiety.... It's something that I'm working to eliminate from my life, and maybe you are to?
I'm studying Matthew 6 right now, and this chunk of scripture is really convicting. I have more to share on this, but will you join me in meditating on this passage?
Which verse sticks out to you?
Matthew 6: 25-34 ( AMPC)
25 Therefore, I tell you, stop being perpetually uneasy (anxious and worried) about your life, what you shall eat or what you shall drink;or about your body, what you shall put on. Is not life greater [in quality] than food, and the body [far above and more excellent] than clothing?
26 Look at the birds of the air; they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father keeps feeding them. Are you not worth much more than they?
27 And who of you by worrying andbeing anxious can add one unit of measure (cubit) to his stature orto the span of his life? [Ps. 39:5-7.]
28 And why should you be anxious about clothes? Consider the lilies of the field andlearn thoroughly how they grow; they neither toil nor spin.
29 Yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his magnificence (excellence, dignity, and grace) was not arrayed like one of these. [I Kings 10:4-7.]
30 But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is alive andgreen and tomorrow is tossed into the furnace, will He not much more surely clothe you, O you of little faith?
31 Therefore do not worry andbe anxious, saying, What are we going to have to eat? Or, What are we going to have to drink? Or, what are we going to have to wear?
32 For the Gentiles (heathen) wish for andcrave anddiligently seek all these things, and your heavenly Father knows well that you need them all.
33 But seek (aim at and strive after) first of all His kingdom and His righteousness (His way of doing and being right), and then all these things taken together will be given you besides.
34 So do not worry orbe anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will have worries andanxieties of its own. Sufficient for each day is its own trouble.
