Anxiety

Selected Sub-Tab

Matthew 6:25-27

"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? 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? Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life?"

Jesus addresses everyday anxieties about provision and the future. Worry cannot lengthen life or improve outcomes; it only drains the present. The argument rests on the Father's care for lesser creatures and the far greater value of His children.
