Can All Your Worries

Add

A Single Moment To Your Life?

Scripture

Luke 12

25 Can all your worries add a single moment to your life?

Observation

Here is more of that passage from Luke 12:

…Jesus said, “That is why I tell you not to worry about everyday life—whether you have enough food to eat or enough clothes to wear. 23 For life is more than food, and your body more than clothing. 24 Look at the ravens. They don’t plant or harvest or store food in barns, for God feeds them. And you are far more valuable to him than any birds! 25 Can all your worries add a single moment to your life? 26 And if worry can’t accomplish a little thing like that, what’s the use of worrying over bigger things?

27 “Look at the lilies and how they grow. They don’t work or make their clothing, yet Solomon in all his glory was not dressed as beautifully as they are. 28 And if God cares so wonderfully for flowers that are here today and thrown into the fire tomorrow, he will certainly care for you. Why do you have so little faith?

29 “And don’t be concerned about what to eat and what to drink. Don’t worry about such things. 30 These things dominate the thoughts of unbelievers all over the world, but your Father already knows your needs. 31 Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and he will give you everything you need.

32 “So don’t be afraid, little flock. For it gives your Father great happiness to give you the Kingdom.

……………………

What is worrying you? Stop worrying about it and focus on God’s Kingdom, then God will give you everything you need! Think about that all day today!

   Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. If you do this, you will experience God's peace, which is far more wonderful than the human mind can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-7

    Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about what happens to you.

1 Peter 5:7

   
 Application

I will focus on the Kingdom of God today and I will pray and not worry! How about you?  

Prayer

Heavenly Father, help me to focus on Your Kingdom’s business today. Don’t let worry creep into my life. Give me the faith that I need in You so I don’t worry. I know that You care about me. I am Your delight. I am the apple of Your eye. So why should I worry!
