Life is more than food, and the body is more than clothes. <sup>26<\/sup>\u00a0Look at the birds in the air. They don\u2019t plant or harvest or store food in barns, but your heavenly Father feeds them. And you know that you are worth much more than the birds. <sup>27<\/sup>\u00a0You cannot add any time to your life by worrying about it.<\/p>\r\n<p><sup>28<\/sup>\u00a0\u201cAnd why do you worry about clothes? Look at how the lilies in the field grow. They don\u2019t work or make clothes for themselves. <sup>29<\/sup>\u00a0But I tell you that even Solomon with his riches was not dressed as beautifully as one of these flowers. <sup>30<\/sup>\u00a0God clothes the grass in the field, which is alive today but tomorrow is thrown into the fire. So you can be even more sure that God will clothe you. Don\u2019t have so little faith! <sup>31<\/sup>\u00a0Don\u2019t worry and say, \u2018What will we eat?\u2019 or \u2018What will we drink?\u2019 or \u2018What will we wear?\u2019 <sup>32<\/sup>\u00a0The people who don\u2019t know God keep trying to get these things, and your Father in heaven knows you need them. <sup>33<\/sup>\u00a0Seek first God\u2019s kingdom and what God wants. Then all your other needs will be met as well. <sup>34<\/sup>\u00a0So don\u2019t worry about tomorrow, because tomorrow will have its own worries. Each day has enough trouble of its own.<\/p>\r\n<p class=\"passage-read-more\">Read <a href=\"http:\/\/www.biblegateway.com\/passage\/?search=Matthew 6:25-34&#038;version=NCV\" title=\"Read the passage on BibleGateway.com\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"hyperlink-underlined\">Matthew 6:25-34<\/a> in context and\/or in other translations on BibleGateway.com!<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div><p>In this journal entry, Camden and Suzie discuss Jesus and His thoughts on worrying, on trusting God, and on living in the present.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Discussion Question:<\/strong> What stands out to you in this passage or from the thoughts we shared?<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"In this journal entry, Camden and Suzie discuss Jesus and His thoughts on worrying, on trusting God, and on living in the present.
