"Don't worry about your life," Matthew 6:25.
Gotta put food on the table! Gotta get hydrated! Gotta have the right gear! All earthly nations pursue this stuff worried about it. Jesus says: Stop it! Life's more than food or clothes. Look: God feeds the birds. God makes grassland flowers gorgeous. He takes care of these lesser things just fine. God puts a lot more value in humans than in animals or plants. So. Worry after God's kingdom, instead. Quest for it. Seek it out. That's where all the other stuff can be had securely. Repent. New covenant. God's nation.
We meet with a brother or sister today pursuing God's rule. And together we give thanks that he supplies abundantly for our every need.
