Road Without Worry



Click here to listen to blog

I tell you not to worry about your life. Don't worry about having something to eat, drink, or wear. Isn't life more than food or clothing?  Look at the birds in the sky! They don't plant or harvest. They don't even store grain in barns. Yet your Father in heaven takes care of them. Aren't you worth more than birds?  Can worry make you live longer?  Why worry about clothes? Look how the wild flowers grow. They don't work hard to make their clothes.  But I tell you that Solomon with all his wealth wasn't as well clothed as one of them.  God gives such beauty to everything that grows in the fields, even though it is here today and thrown into a fire tomorrow. He will surely do even more for you! Why do you have such little faith?

Matthew 6:25-30

There are plenty of people in this world who will tell you not to worry!  Sometimes though these folks are simply trying to keep you calm and have no real reason for telling you not to worry.

When you worry, you are thinking about all the things that can go wrong!  Of course, there is nothing wrong about being careful and trying not to take steps that take your life in a difficult and even tragic direction!  

But when Jesus tells you not to worry, it is very different!  When the One who created Heaven and earth and even designed your body says, "Don't worry" remember that He has the power to address all the issues you worry about!  

Faith is not simply saying, "Don't Worry, Be Happy" based on nothing more than a memorable popular song!  Walking with Jesus is the Road Without Worry!  Jesus is the reason not to worry!  When you set your heart on Jesus, your mind can be at peace, knowing that the One who designed and created you will care for you every day!

"Lord Jesus, there is no reason for me to worry when You are in charge of my life!  May every step I take today be part of Your will and design for me!  Praise Your Holy Name now and forever.  Amen."
