Blessings to you TODAY!
Jesus gives his disciples (and us) six reasons for
trusting in God rather than worrying….
Day
Five…MATTHEW 6:31 -33 “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
God's children should seek
instead God's agendas…assured that God will also care for them in the process. Even in Jesus' model prayer, disciples seek
God's kingdom first!
Faith is not an intricate ritual
to get what we want for ourselves; FAITH is obeying God's will with the
assurance that HE WILL ultimately fulfill for us what is in our best interests.
That kind of faith grows ONLY in the context of an intimate relationship of
love between the heavenly Father and his children.
Some people today associate faith with being able to
obtain possessions from God, but Jesus did not even associate it with seeking basic
needs from God. Pagans seek those
things, he warned…we should seek instead GOD’S Kingdom and HIS RIGHTEOUS
Will.
Let us consider…When his people care for OTHERS IN
need among them, that God supplies the needs of his people as a whole, perhaps
because then He can best trust them to use his gifts righteously…
We ARE God's children!!! God will NEVER treat us as orphans who need
to fend for themselves. Trust ONLY IN
Him…Amen!
