[quote=scaredyclassic]”If then you cannot do even a very little thing, why do you worry about other matters? 27″Consider the lilies, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; but I tell you, not even Solomon in all his glory clothed himself like one of these. 28″But if God so clothes the grass in the field, which is alive today and tomorrow is thrown into the furnace, how much more will He clothe you? You men of little faith![/quote]
That’s a great one, scaredy. I’m going to add more from that chapter because it really hits the nail on the head.
Luke 12:24-26
…24″Consider the ravens, for they neither sow nor reap; they have no storeroom nor barn, and yet God feeds them; how much more valuable you are than the birds! 25″And which of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life’s span? 26″If then you cannot do even a very little thing, why do you worry about other matters?…

As a fellow worrier, I’ve always admired those people who seem to just coast through life without any worries. We have friends who will just pick up and travel the world with their families without any care for money or health insurance, etc. It works out almost 100% of the time, and they have such a great time. These types of people end up at the same place as we do in their latter years, but have a much more relaxing and enjoyable ride on the way there. There’s something to be said for that.
