Part One - Do Not Worry

Welcome to this 'Faith Builders' Devotional! In this devotional, we will be looking at examples of great faith in the Bible and how we can also have great faith!

Faith means to have complete trust in someone or something. In Hebrews 11:1 it tells us that faith is "being sure of the things we hope for. And faith means knowing that something is real even if we do not see it." 

God wants us to trust Him and have faith that He is good in everything! He knows about all things and cares about them - even our worries, fears, thoughts and ideas!

In Matthew 6:25-34, Jesus goes to teach on a mountain. Lots of different people went to see Him. Jesus says to everyone to look at the world around them that God had created.  Jesus says that God cares so much for the flowers and the birds. They are beautiful examples of God's creativity and love for us!  

Jesus shows how God looks after the birds; He gives them food and a home. When we read about God doing this, we can think about all the ways that God provides what we need too.  Because of this, we never have to worry about anything. We can know God is with us in everything we do and that He looks after us so well because He loves and cares for us so much! God cares about what we need, what we think and what we feel not only now, but forever!

ASK: 

In what ways has God provided for you? 

Are there any situations where you sometimes feel afraid or lonely?

PRAY:

Father God, I thank you that you love me far more than I can ever imagine. I thank you that you care for me so much and give me everything that I need. Thank you for all the ways that you have provided for me and for the ways that you will provide for me in the future. Thank you that I can live each day fearlessly because of the truth that you are with me in everything! Help me to be more fearless and understand more that you are fighting for me because you love me so much. Amen.
