Hey there, friend… Let me ask you something: how much of your time do you spend worrying about stuff? I mean, really worrying—about money, food, clothes, gas prices, the weather, or whether folks like you or not? If you’re like most folks I know, it’s a full-time job with lousy benefits.

But Jesus, in Matthew 6:25, gives us a gentle nudge with a powerful truth: “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?”

He’s not saying your needs don’t matter—He’s saying you matter more. He’s reminding us that we weren’t made just to survive. We were made to live. And we’ve got a Father in Heaven who knows how to take care of His kids.

Worry is like sitting in a rocking chair—gives you something to do, but it won’t get you anywhere. Trust Jesus. Breathe deep. Look around. There’s beauty and blessing tucked into every corner of your day—if you’re not too worried to see it.

So today, let go of the worry. Grab hold of the grace. And walk in the peace of knowing your Heavenly Father’s got this—and He’s got you, too.
