Do not worry
Alone at night, wondering about the nature
The wind blow, the moon shining
All look calm and peaceful
No fear or anxiety, everything is in harmony with the night
But in my heart I fear, with the wind I worry
For no man is able to predict the future
With so many uncertainty that can happen
Many things can happen and yet it is out of my control
Many questions but do not have enough answers
In the quiet night all is calm except me
I worry about my career, my welfare, my family, my relationship and my future
But in the midst of all this worry a small voice speak to me
“What are you worrying and why?”
“I worry that I sleep tonight and tomorrow I may not wake up?”
“Well if you worry, do you still need to sleep?”
“Yes, because if I do not sleep I cannot function as human?”
“Well so you still need to sleep at night.”
“Yes.” I answer
“Then why do you worry?”
Interesting question but I do not have the answer.
Jesus provide me with the answer and comfort knowing that He care for me
For this is what He says
“Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink, or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life not more important than food and the body more important than the clothes? Look at the birds of the air, they do not sow or reap or store away in the barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?”
Matthew Chapter 7 Verse 25-27
“Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.”
Matthew Chapter 7 Verse 34
