Light Hearted and Joyful

As I awoke to the birds chirping this morning, I thought about their light heartedness, their joyfulness ~ their lack of worry! It made me think of the scripture in Matthew 6:26 “Look at the birds. They don’t plant or harvest or store food in barns, for your heavenly Father feeds them. And aren’t you far more valuable to him than they are?”

Events of the world such as rising fuel costs, jobs loss, violence, weather changes, etc. can cause us to worry! BUT the scripture is full of God’s promises for those who believe. Matthew 6 continues to say “So don’t worry about these things, saying, ‘What will we eat? What will we drink? What will we wear?’ These things dominate the thoughts of unbelievers, but your heavenly Father already knows all your needs. Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need."

My husband and I have really been leaning on those scriptures for the last couple years and the testimonies we now have are incredible! Every time we reached a point where we couldn’t figure out how something would be paid or resolved, God has proven Himself faithful in our lives!!

So, I encourage you! As it says in Philippians 4:6 “Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.”
