Matthew 6:25-34 Do not be Anxious

Matthew 6:25-34 Do not be Anxious:

We live with worry and anxiety about everything. Will I get a prom dress is there enough milk for my cereal, is the milk too expired. It is simply amazing how many and how long we will be worrisome and anxious.

The problem with worry and anxiousness is unbelief. Having to much and not enough is the samething: both are not trusting in the fact that God will provide. Unbelief.

We live in a place where we do not struggle with food, clothes and shelter. But be worry about all sorts of things that do not matter to life. Think about how simple the concept Jesus is referring to.  Life issues are basics not the complications you make. Work hard, do what is right, and trust the God provides for you. So many times we find that doing things our way makes the most sense. But that is not the way the world works best. God’s way is the way the world works best.

Here is the key to the whole issue found in V. 33 Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.

Right “USE” ness: what are we seeking? the way things will be and the best way to do them. How do we focus on what we were saved for? God has called us to so much more than we truly believe. Are we willing to live lives that reflect the goodness and righteousness of God? He has a Right “USE” ness for us, to be like Jesus and live like he wins in the end! How do you think about future importance not temporal insignificance?

If God wins we should live like it.
