Worried? Don't Be

There are seven (7) reasons why you shouldn't worry:

1. The same God who created life in you can be trusted with the details of you life. Matt. 6:25
2. Worrying about the future hampers your efforts for today. Matt 6:26
3. Worrying is more harmful than helpful. Matt 6:27
4. God does not ignore those who depend on him. Matt 6:28-30
5. Worry shows a lack of faith and understanding of God. Matt 6:31-32
6. There are real challenges God wants us to pursue, and worrying keeps us from them. Matt 6:33
7. Living one day at a time keeps us from being consumed with worry. Matt 6:34

Matthew 6:25-34: "I tell you not to worry about everyday life--whether you have enough food and drink, or enough clothes to wear. Isn't life more than food, and your body more than clothing? Look at the birds. They don't plant or harvest or store food in barns, for your heavenly Father feeds them. And aren't you far more valuable to him than they are?  Can all your worries add a single moment to your life?  And why worry about your clothing? Look at the lilies of the field and how they grow. They don't work or make their clothing, yet Solomon in all his glory was not dressed as beautifully as they are. And if God cares so wonderfully for wildflowers that are here today and thrown into the fire tomorrow, he will certainly care for you. Why do you have so little faith? So don't worry about these things, saying, 'What will we eat? What will we drink? What will we wear?' These things dominate the thoughts of unbelievers, but your heavenly Father already knows all your needs. Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need. So don't worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring its own worries. Today's trouble is enough for today."

Our lives are such a great value to the Lord that He will make sure that all our needs are met. Ask yourself are you more important than the clothes covering your body, the animals that roam the earth, the food and drink in put in your body? Yes you are more important then those things, and God will make sure that you have those things, because you need food and drink to live, and you need clothes to cover yourself. If God can provide food and water for the animals that are less important, then think of the possibilities of what the Lord can give you. Worship and Praise the Lord with all your heart and know that He loved you enough to send His own Son to die so that we can have eternal life. Why wouldn't you want eternal life with someone that shows nothing but love for us?
