shey 4 Posted January 19, 2015 Luke 12:22-26 22. Then Jesus said to his disciples: "therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what will you eat; or about your body, what you will wear 23. For life is more than food, and the body more than clothes. 24. Consider the ravens; they do not sow or reap, they have no store room or barn; yet God feeds them and how much more valuable you are than birds! 25. Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to your life 26. Since you cannot do this very little thing, why do you worry about the rest? This is one of my favorite verses in bible. I would like to encourage everyone to read the Bible. And of course to have a relationship with our God. He listens all we need is to call him through our prayers. God can stop the storm we are facing, all we need is to trust Him. With Him, we will never ever feel alone because we are all His child. God is our best provider and He would give us the great courage. Let Him live in to our hearts and lead in to our lives. God bless everyone! 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jonathan123 2368 Posted January 19, 2015 Hi shey. There are some very wise words in the bible which we could do well to look at. I am not religious in the way you appear to be, but I appreciate the teachings of the masters of which Jesus was one. But it is the teaching I am interested in and not the person. If I buy a piece of equipment and are given written instructions as to how to make it work do I want to know who wrote it; whether they are married or have children? Of course not, but I will follow the instructions because the person who wrote them knew more about it than I do. This is not how a religious person would see it I know, but that in no way detracts from the shared wisdom and understanding in the New Testament. The parables have deep psychological meaning when we understand them and have the key to unlock the message. You are fortunate that you have the belief you have, it can be a great comfort in hard times. And bless you too. Jon. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shey 4 Posted January 19, 2015 Well, i would agree with your perception, Jon. I really found that verse interesting to share here because of of worries that i have before. worries makes anxiety. If we will just give our trust in God then we will not worry that much and our anxiety will go away little by little. I am wishing to encourage some hearts here that is suffering from much worries. I love posting here, to give even just a little inspiration to everyone. Cheer up guys and embrace the precious life that God gives to us. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
