Hey everyone,
Well I know that we are headed right for the Christmas season. Things are getting busy and life is tough with wrapping up school and such. I wanted to encourage you all that God, the creator of the Universe has something to say about that. When I was doing my Bible study a couple of days ago, he reminded me of how bad it is to worry and to be anxious. Maybe this will be a time of complete relaxation, but for those that still have mid-terms due, it's worrisome. I can only give you a piece of the passage but PLEASE read all of it, it's so good :)
Do Not Be Anxious
22And he said to his disciples, "Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat, nor about your body, what you will put on. 23For life is more than food, and the body more than clothing. 24Consider the ravens: they neither sow nor reap, they have neither storehouse nor barn, and yet God feeds them. Of how much more value are you than the birds! 25And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life? 26If then you are not able to do as small a thing as that, why are you anxious about the rest? 27Consider the lilies, 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. 28But if God so clothes the grass, which is alive in the field today, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, how much more will he clothe you, O you of little faith! 29And do not seek what you are to eat and what you are to drink, nor be worried. 30For all the nations of the world seek after these things, and your Father knows that you need them. 31Instead, seek his kingdom,and these things will be added to you. 32 "Fear not, little flock, for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom. 33 Sell your possessions, and give to the needy. Provide yourselves with moneybags that do not grow old, with a treasure in the heavens that does not fail, where no thief approaches and no moth destroys. 34 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
