Don't Worry-God Will Provide

Don't Worry-God Will Provide “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear.” Matthew 6:25 Do you spend time worrying about the future? Many families spend a good part of their day trying to figure out how to pay their bills, dealing with problems with their children, handling pressures with their jobs, and dealing with relationships with their spouses. This is not the way God wants a Christian family to spend their waking hours, just getting by and worrying about their problems. You cannot be a productive witness for God, if you have your mind occupied on your own needs. You need to get your mind off your daily difficulties, and turn them over to God. He can handle your burdens, and provide for you. When you trust God and have faith, He will protect and provide all your needs. Many of the difficulties that people have today is related to things that happened in their past. We can all look back and see things that we would have done differently, but the Bible says to make the most of each day. Yesterday is gone; tomorrow may never come. You must live for today, as you can’t do anything about yesterday, but can do a great deal about tomorrow. Philippians 3:13 “But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.” God does not want you to worry about anything, and promises you that He will provide. Your days on earth should be happy and peaceful ones. They should not be spent worrying about your wants and desires, but should be spent on things that will enhance God’s kingdom. Your time on earth is too precious to be wasted with worry, as this is not productive time. When God is at the center of your life you will have a productive life, free from worry. Robert W.
