Do Not Worry

This is the view from Glenn's hospital window every afternoon. Every day, a patient or a patient's relative come to this part of the hospital and feed the birds. 

This is a comforting example of God's love and provision. He uses His creations to bless His other creations. We need not worry about our daily needs because God provides even before we ask. 

Do Not Worry
25 “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? 26 Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27 Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life?

28 “And why worry about your clothing? Look at the lilies of the field and how they grow. They don’t work or make their clothing, 29 yet Solomon in all his glory was not dressed as beautifully as they are. 30 And if God cares so wonderfully for wildflowers that are here today and thrown into the fire tomorrow, he will certainly care for you. Why do you have so little faith?
31 “So don’t worry about these things, saying, ‘What will we eat? What will we drink? What will we wear?’ 32 These things dominate the thoughts of unbelievers, but your heavenly Father already knows all your needs.33 Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need.
34Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.

Matthew 6:25-34

Prayer 
Lord, thank You for sending a line up of people to help us even before we ask. Thank You for sustaining us with all of our needs; physical, emotional, intellectual, financial and spiritual to get through every day. We lift our future to You, Lord God. Use our life, for Your glory. In Jesus' name. Amen.
