Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things - Matthew 6:34.
Worrying is waste of time
Worrying is not the solution to our
problem but waste of time. And which of you by worrying can add one cubit to
his stature? If you then are not able to
do the least, why are you anxious for the rest? - Luke 12:25,26. We are more
valuable to God. Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you
will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is
not life more than food and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of
the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly
Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? Which of you by
worrying can add one cubit to his stature? - Matthew 6:25-27.
Give first priority to
God
We will never worry about anything if
we give our first priority to God. Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall
we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For after all these
things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all
these things. But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all
these things shall be added to you. - Matthew 6:31-33.
Pray & thank God
Instead of worrying about everything, let us pray and thank God for all He has done. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus - Philippians 4:6,7. Pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus - 1 Thessalonians 5:17,18.
PRAYER: Dear Lord, Fill
us with the spirit of prayer and gratitude instead of worrying. Let us seek Your kingdom first. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.
