Do not Worry about Anything

2

[Matthew 6: 33]

But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.

3

As always many people gathered to listen to Jesus.
Jesus knew the people gathered there had many worries in their hearts.

4

Every person worried about what to eat and how to live.
Some people worried about what to wear.
Many people who believe in Jesus today also worry about these things.

5

But Jesus says to the children of God to not worry.
"So I say to you people. Do not worry about what you will eat or drink in your lives.  Even do not worry about what you will wear."

6

Jesus tells us not to worry has a reason.
Jesus explained each verb one by one.

7

Jesus said while looking at the bird flying in the sky. "Look at that bird. Birds don't plan seeds nor harvest them neither do they not store in their warehouses. But the GOD in heaven feeds them every day so the birds don't starve. Do you think God who values us more than the birds will not provide food for us?

8

God provides food not only for the birds but for all the living things in this world. Jesus was saying it is wrong to worry about what to eat when God thinks of us as His own children.

9

Jesus tells us how useless it is to worry. "Even if you worry a lot, can a dying person's life be extended?" He was saying to us not to worry about things because that is useless and also harmful for our bodies when we worry.

10

Jesus also said to the people who worried about what to wear.
"Look at the lily you are holding. The lily doesn't work. They do not work for their clothes. But look at how beautiful they are. Even the clothes of Solomon is not better than this."

11

If 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, O you of little faith?

12

What do you think the children of Jesus will eat?
What will we wear? We do not need to waste our time worrying about these things. Because our Father God knows what we need.

13

Then what should we do? Jesus told us, the children of God, what to do.
" First, ask for what God wants. Then everything will come together."

14

Children of God like us should follow the law in heaven.
Whatever we do we need to follow the commands in the Bible.
We should always do what God will like.

15

Jesus was telling us if we live our lives worthy as children of God, He will provide everything for us.

16

Living as children of God is not that difficult. Jesus already told us what to do to be the children of God. First, we should love God with all of our hearts and our lives. Second, we should love our neighbors as ourselves.

17

Starting today I hope that we, the children of God, will not live with worries.
Whatever we do we should think what will make God happy and act upon those things.
