Matthew 6:25-27 "Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life...Look at the birds of the air; Are you not much more valuable than they? Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life?"
I worry a lot. I call anxiety they "a word". This is probably my biggest struggle. Sunday, Andy taught on worry and fear. You can listen to it at: http://www.WellSpringChristian.org/resources/sermons/?sermon_id=126
Andy suggested that when we are overwhelmed with "What If" we trade that in for "What Is" and who God is...
and then we talked a lot about birds...
I never thought about the comparison to the birds. God made a natural order in creation that provides for the birds. God does not leave our lives up to natural order. I believe he is active in our lives. I have to believe that he is eager to help just like a parent.
I am so glad God loves me more than the birds.
So when you are dwelling on "what if", maybe you should give worry the bird?
