Relax!

"If God gives such attention to the appearance of wildflowers- most of which are never seen- don't you think he'll attend to you, take pride in you, do his best for you? What I'm trying to do here is get you to relax, to not be so preoccupied with getting, so you can respond to God's giving. People who don't know God and the way he works fuss over these things, but you know both God and how he works. Steep your life in God-reality, God-initiative, God-provisions. Don't worry about missing out. You'll find all your everyday human concerns will be met." Matthew 6:30-33 

This is why I love reading scriptures in different translations. One of my favorites is The Message, which the passage above came from. It's beyond clear and in plain English. There is so much beauty and intricate design in things that we overlook (wildflowers, snowflakes, seashells). God took time to take care of the little things in nature, surely he'll take care of his children! Let's not look like the world who stresses, worries, and panics. Let's look like followers of Christ who have peace that transcends understanding (Philippians 4:7). Happy Thursday!
