Take no thought for your life.
"Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?" (Matthew 6:25 KJV) Don't worry about these things. The physical body is more than just the clothes we wear. God has given us life. He has given us a life that looks past the worries and anxieties of this world, a life that is not moved, nor running passionately after the things of this world, but a life that is running passionately to Him who gives us life. When we accepted the Lord Jesus Christ, we accepted the cross which put to death our selfish desires, self-love, self seeking nature, and self pride. These things have been eliminated from the believers and should no longer exist. How can one walk with the Lord Jesus Christ with a selfish heart and their eyes only on what they can get? To follow Christ is to deny ourselves, to pick up our cross, and to seek Him first. Our God provides all of our needs. As he provided for the fowler of the air, so will He provide for His Children. All we need is faith. The reason why we worry in life is the lack of faith. God is faithful and He can be trusted; He is committed to us. His son, Jesus Christ, carried out His commitment. It's our turn to carry out our commitment to Him. We must learn to trust in His will and not our own. (V:33)"But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you". God bless you. Amen.
