Mathew 6: 26-34
Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life? And why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin, yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is alive and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? Therefore do not be anxious, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For the Gentiles seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.
“Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.
What would be a successful community that is driven to its higher purpose. A community that has it goals defined, powered with knowledge and is prepared to work towards their achievements, knowing that their lives are placed upon the hands of a the trustworthy leaders. Jesus was, is and will be that kind of leader for he was sent to earth for our salvation. The scriptures are our manual towards the Kingdom of God!
Like most corporate organizations in today's world, mistrust or organizational inequities are due to the truth that once the capital runs out the leaders run out. Jesus is the Son of a God, who created Heaven & Earth, he is able to make miracles and supply what you need. We need to seek him in obedience to accomplish his purpose for every individual. Unfortunately, we are often tied to the boundaries of the earthly issues.
Our faith that we can have a covenant with an Almighty God, who sent his Son to rescue us from such inequities somehow gets silenced away by the loud voices that echoes in falsehood of induced fear and the ignorance of men, who reign temporarily with their might and power. Jesus as a leader did not run away. He died for his disciples on the cross so that they would see the glory of our Father in Heaven. For he was raised by the Father in the resurrection, so that we could be resurrected within our fears, inequities, sins and receive the goodness that God intended for us.
Unfortunately, the world continues to persecute Jesus and the men and women who come in his likeness, within such ignorance, we test and try to destroy the light of those who risk their lives in the name of Christ. Nevertheless, those who have the faith in Jesus will be rescued as the scriptural promises and as it has remained for thousands and thousands of years. His promises of supply when there is a need!
“Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble."
Trust with all your heart and soul and be kind to each other and let Jesus go forth tomorrow while we immerse ourselves in his goodness and be thankful for what we receive today! In Jesus Name... Amen!
