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? – Matthew 6:25-27 (NIV)
In Jesus name, Amen.
Thank you, MJA
Sounds like Jesus wouldn’t think much about 401Ks.
Let the Good Lord carry your worries.
Be grateful for what you have on this earth
and you will be slightly happier and less
like a lib/progtard.
IF GOD IS FOR US, WHO CAN BE AGAINST US?
ROMANS 8:31
Amen.
Vietvet LOL! You made me laugh so hard I almost woke my sleeping husband (I’m an insomniac tonight)
As C.S. Lewis put it, use common sense, make such preparations as are reasonable for your situation, and then put aside all worry.
Great way to start the day.Thanks MJA
When all else fails, you then realize you were trying to do it all on your own.
God does NOT help those who help themselves. He wants us to place our plans and desires in his hands first. Then go forward asking him to guide your steps.
Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
It is fear that keeps people in the matrix.
I LUUUUUUV That scripture. And your candle reminded me of this:

Beautiful.
Any scripture verse that speaks to the heart and helps one listen to God is actually God speaking to you. It is comforting to know that “I” don’t have to control everything in my life, because I’m not really that good at it!
Timely and profound. Excellent, MJA.
Pray, hope, and don’t worry.
Worry is useless.
God is merciful and will hear your prayer.
–St. Pio of Pietrelcina
That gets me through most days. Well, that and the Holy Spirit’s impeccable timing and vicious sense of humor.
Thanks for that. It’s always a good reminder.
