Today's Scripture Passage: Matthew 6:25-27
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? 26 Look 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? 27 Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life?”
Today's Scripture Message:
“Do not worry” is different from “Do not care”. Worry is a derivative of stress. Care a derivative of love. So when you are instructed not to worry it means to know you are cared for and live within a love for yourself enough to know worrying is not an option and that you were gifted with the ability to see things through. Worry is a distractive mechanism that comes in and distorts the clarity of your thoughts. Disallowing the stressor to overtake your thinking allows a focused vision and a determined outcome. Death or Life, Worry or Care…as with all things is a choice. Choose wisely and love yourself enough to know the difference.
Prayer for the day:
Father, thank you for guiding me to the unconditional love you have for me. How can I be less than that which you hold in such high regard. I thank and praise you for revealing to me all that I am and commit my life and the blessings you have shown me to continually bless others all to your glory, in Jesus' Name, Amen.
.
Thought for the day:
“Worry is a thin stream of fear trickling through the mind. If encouraged, it cuts a channel into which all other thoughts are drained.”
~ Arthur Somers Roche
Goal for the Day
Focus on the care needed to meet your objective and handle your tasks. Don’t worry about the provision, in your care – opportunity is there.
