Another “Do Not Worry” Message

Some have said there are over 360 times in the scriptures in which we are instructed not to worry! Today’s passage is one of those, and it comes straight from the lips of Jesus. Jesus plainly told us not to worry about our life, what we will eat, about our bodies, what we will wear. Jesus said “…your Father has been PLEASED TO GIVE you the kingdom[!]”. Since He has given us the kingdom, He then instructs us to sell our possessions and give [the proceeds] to the poor. That’s how His kingdom was designed to work ---those who have much should help those who have little. He wants us to meet the needs of others and He will, in turn, meet our needs.

We don’t have to look far to find people who need our help and need to see how beautiful His kingdom really is. Especially during a time of struggle for ourselves, let’s look for ways we can help someone else to experience this perfect principle of the kingdom of God.

QUESTIONS:

1. Do I believe He has given me His kingdom?
2. Can I trust Him to provide for my needs?
3. Is He calling me to be His hands and feet and help someone else?
