John
14:1 "Don't let your hearts be troubled. Trust in
God, and trust also in me.
Matthew
6:25 "That is why I tell you don't worry about
everyday life—whether you have enough food and drink, or enough
clothes to wear.
Matthew
11:28 Then Jesus said, "Come to me, all of you who
are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest.
These
are just 3 place in the Bible, amongst a whole lot of places, where
Jesus basically tells us to not sweat it.
He's
got this.
He's
got us covered.
The
God of the universes, who knows everything, who is so blindingly
holy, who is all powerful, in control of everything, & is the
very essence of love, says to each of us over & over again...
“I'm
going to take care of you.”
So
why don't we rust Him with that?
Why
do we constantly worry, fret, try & figure out how to make things
ok?
Why
don't we just let go of our lives, our worries, our cares, or the
areas of our lives & the places we live, & just trust Him
with it all?
Maybe
we don't really trust Him to come through for us.
Or
maybe we're just stupid?
Today,
let's whisper these words of Jesus to ourselves when life seems
impossible...
“Don't
let your heart be troubled.”
and...
“Don't
worry about your everyday life.”
