Worry
Matthew 6:19-21 — “Do not lay up for yourselves treasures
on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in
and steal; but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where
neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in
and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be
also.
Matthew 6:25-34 — “Therefore I say to you, do not worry
about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor
about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than
food and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the
air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet
your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than
they? Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?
“So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the
field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; and yet I say
to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like
one of these. Now if God so clothes the grass of the field,
which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He
not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?
“Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What
shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For after all these
things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that
you need all these things. But seek first the kingdom of God and
His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.
Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry
about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own
trouble.
Psalm 37:8 — Cease from anger, and forsake wrath; Do not
fret—it only causes harm.
