Matthew 6:25 – 34
25 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?
26 Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?
27 Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?
28 And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:
29 And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
30 Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?
31 Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?
32 (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek 🙂 for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.
33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
34 Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.
Have you ever had problems making ends meet?
It seems that we all can recall a time in our lives when we may have had some financial struggles, a time when we had wa-a-a-a-y more month than money.
No one likes going through the stresses of not knowing if the lights will stay on or if the house payment will be made on time.
Just know that whatever your need is today, whether it is a financial need or a physical need or most especially a spiritual need your God is able. If your struggle is something as simple as finding the right doctor or desiring the right mate to share your life with, or maybe even being hired for the job that is best for your skills and talents, whatever (and whatever covers everything) your need is our God’s resources and His ability to provide are so much greater than your need could ever possibly be. He has all that is required to sustain you.
You will never need more than our God can provide. He owns it all, He created it all, and He is the giver of it all. Every good and perfect gift comes straight from the heart and hand of God, and because not only are His hands involved but, His heart He will only extend to you what is best for you. So, trust that His provisions for you have been well planned. He knows what you can handle. Just lay your supplications at His feet in faith and trust Him to answer you according to His holy and perfect will.
Do not become consumed with the cares of this world. Focus on the Giver not the Gift and your heart will always be at peace.
Philippians 4:6-7
6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.
7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
James 1:17
17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.
