Matthew 6:25-34
Each Day Will Have Enough Troubles of Its Own
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 do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. 29 Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. 30 If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you—you of little faith? 31 So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32 For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. 33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. 34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
When you are troubled and in despair remember that God has made plans for you...The LORD has plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope...So trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding...In all your ways acknowledge the LORD, and He will make your paths straight...Let us be strong and courageous...Let us not fear or be in dread of troubles, for it is the LORD our God who goes with us...He will not leave or forsake us...Know that the steadfast LOVE of the LORD never ceases...He is the same yesterday, today, and forever...His mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; when great is our faithfulness...His faithfulness is Great and He never forgets us...Oh, taste and see that the LORD is good!...Blessed is the man who takes refuge in Him!...So fear not, for the LORD is with us; do not be dismayed, for the LORD is with us; He will strengthen us, He will help us, He will uphold you with His righteous right hand...So we do not lose heart...Though our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day...For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison, as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen...For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal...
God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble...The LORD is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and He knows and listens to all who trust in Him...Those who know the LORD trust in Him, for He, our LORD, has never forsaken those who seek Him...God will be with us when we are in trouble...He will rescue and honor them...Trust in Him at all times, you people; pour out your hearts to Him, for God is our refuge...
Do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself...Each day has enough trouble of its own...Jesus told us many things, so that in Him we may have peace...The peace that Jesus gives us and has left with us is different from earthly peace...Jesus' peace that He gives is not of this world...Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid...In this world you will have trouble...But take heart!...Jesus has overcome this world...He has risen from death...
