TODAY’S DAILY DEVOTIONAL MESSAGE
Aren’t you worth much more than they are?
As Jesus says in the Sermon on the Mount, “Therefore, I say to you, don’t worry about your life, what you’ll eat or what you’ll drink, or about your body, what you’ll wear. Isn’t life more than food and the body more than clothes? Look at the birds in the sky. They don’t sow seed or harvest grain or gather crops into barns. Yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Aren’t you worth much more than they are?” (Matt. 6:25-26).
QUESTIONS FOR FURTHER REFLECTION: Are you inclined to worry? Why or why not? What makes you worry? What helps you to trust God more, so as not to worry?
Prayer:
Faithful God, even as the priests depended on you, so do we. Of course, we may own our own property and have a source of income. But, in recent years, we have seen how unreliable these resources can be. Moreover, when we reflect upon our lives, we realize just how much we really do depend on you, even if we tend to forget it.
