Words of Encouragement
August - 26 - 2007
Worries are many and they all seem to crowd in around bill time, don't they. Jesus reminded us that life is more than food or clothes. The real question is whether we can live like life is more than food and clothing. We get deceived so easily, like Esau who sold his birthright for a bowl of soup. Let's not sell out what is precious for the allure of what will most likely end in difficulty and entanglements or at the very least doesn't have eternal value.
Let us read Matthew 6:25.
For this reason I say to you, do not be worried about your life, as to what you will eat, or what you shall drink; nor for your body, as to what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body than clothing?
Let us go to our heavenly Father in prayer.
Generous Father, banish fear and selfishness from our hearts. We know you have already provided the most incredible gift of all time. Please help us pursue you and your will and not the things that choke out your presence in our lives.
In Jesus' name we pray
Amen.
