Are You Anxious? Matthew 6:25-34

“Do not be anxious” “Life more than food, and the body more than clothing“

Now as they went on their way, Jesus entered a village. And a woman named Martha welcomed him into her house. And she had a sister called Mary, who sat at the Lord's feet and listened to his teaching. 40 But Martha was distracted with much serving. And she went up to him and said, "Lord, do you not care that my sister has left me to serve alone? Tell her then to help me." 41 But the Lord answered her, "Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled about many things, but one thing is necessary. Mary has chosen the good portion, which will not be taken away from her." Luke 10:38-42

"He who has displayed so great goodness as to form the body, and breathe into it the breathe of life, will surely follow up the blessing, and confer the smaller favor of providing that the body be clothed, and that life preserved." Barnes

“Do not be anxious” “Life more than food, and the body more than clothing“ “Look at the birds of the air“

Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? And not one of them will fall to the ground apart from your Father. But even the hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not, therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows. Matthew 10:29-31

“Do not be anxious” “Life more than food, and the body more than clothing“ “Look at the birds of the air“ “Add a single hour to his span of life?”

“Do not be anxious” “Life more than food, and the body more than clothing“ “Look at the birds of the air“ “Add a single hour to his span of life?” “Consider the lilies of the field“

Jesus said to him, "If you would be perfect, go, sell what you possess and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me." Matthew 19:21

Sell your possessions, and give to the needy. Provide yourselves with moneybags that do not grow old, with a treasure in the heavens that does not fail, where no thief approaches and no moth destroys. For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. Luke 12:33-34

As for the rich in this present age, charge them not to be haughty, nor to set their hopes on the uncertainty of riches, but on God, who richly provides us with everything to enjoy. They are to do good, to be rich in good works, to be generous and ready to share, thus storing up treasure for themselves as a good foundation for the future, so that they may take hold of that which is truly life. 1Timothy 6:17-19

“Don't worry, trust God!” Don't worry about life Put God first Don't worry about tomorrow
