Matthew 6:26
Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in
barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more
valuable than they?
Life is a constant worry.
I cannot state how I'm always worried and concerned for others. I may not show it, but as age catches up, I do spend more time thinking about others now that I'm stable in my career and work. For others I know, they are worrying about medical health, changing jobs or even work issues.
As I walked to work today, I walked pass a small mynah who didn't fly away even though I was just stepping beside. That got me thinking because my mind was just thinking of a couple of individuals whom I've not heard from and my mind was racing with worries.
For such a time like this, I'm grateful that God values those I think about more than the birds that he feeds. It may sound silly, but I sometimes feel that I need to move the hand of God and imagine His passively not doing anything for those who are so distanced from God. Yet, this could not be further from the truth of who God is and how He is more concerned and involved than I am.
So into God's hand, I hand my worries over and claim a promise of restoration over those I think about much.
