Day 127: "Because He Cares For You"

1 Peter 5:6-7 English Standard Version (ESV)

"Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you, casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you."

 I spent some time one night this week, writing down all the things I was worried about and asking God to take care of them. I was crying as I wrote it but I felt so much better when I was done, knowing that I had brought God everything on my mind and could leave it in His hands. I knew that there wasn't a single fear I had to face alone. I invited God to face them with me and I know he will, because He cares for me.

Day 65:"The Flowers of the Field"

Matthew 6:28-30

Matthew 6:28-30 (ESV) "And why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin, yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is alive and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?"

Day 64: "A Single Hour"

Matthew 6:27 (ESV)

Days 62-63: "Look At The Birds"

 Matthew 6:25-26

"'Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing?  Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?"

Day 39: "They Will Soon Fade"

Psalm 37:1-2

Fret not yourself because of evildoers;

    be not envious of wrongdoers!

For they will soon fade like the grass

    and wither like the green herb.

Day 36: "A Single Hour"

Luke 12:25-26

 

Luke 12:25-26 (ESV) And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life? If then you are not able to do as small a thing as that, why are you anxious about the rest?
