Worry
- "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 important than food, and the body more
important than clothes? 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? Who of you
by worrying can add a single hour to his life? "And why do you
worry about clothes? See how the lilies of the field grow. They do not
labor or spin. Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his
splendor was dressed like one of these. 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? So do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or
'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?' For the
pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that
you need them. But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness,
and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore do
not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each
day has enough trouble of its own. Matthew 6:25-34
- Do not be anxious about anything, but
in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your
requests to God. Philippians 4:6
- Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for
you. 1 Peter 5:7
