Do Not Be Anxious

I am normally a very calm and laid-back person. Lately I have been anxious and uptight, largely do to my dealing with some health issues. Then I read the following verses in Matthew. “Therefore, I tell you, do not be anxious 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: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life? And why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin, yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.” Matthew 6:24 through 29. I realize that God is in control and all I have to do is trust in him. Let us all strive to let God take care of all the details of our lives. Remember that God loves you unconditionally!
