How To Trust Instead Of Worry નમૂનો
Foundational Needs
Jesus can’t be any clearer when He tells us in the book of Matthew not to worry about life. But He goes further into detail and says, “Don’t worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Isn’t life more than food and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the sky: They don’t sow or reap, or gather into barns, yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Aren’t you worth more than they?”
Jesus wants you to understand that God is the provider of your foundational needs. If God provides for the birds and gives beauty to the fields, “Why do you have such little faith?” Why are you so worried?
God can provide for your foundational needs. And not only will He provide your basic needs of food and clothing, but He can meet your foundational needs of love, satisfaction in life, and goals and dreams.
There are needs in men and women. Most men need significance and respect, while women desire the need to feel special and loved. Does this mean that men don’t need what women desire too? No. We all need everything. Men need love just as women do. Women need respect as much as men do. However, in the book of Matthew 6:25-30, Jesus is telling us, His followers, that God is able to meet those needs. Not only your clothes and food but even the desires of your heart.
A blogger quoted a man from 500 years ago, and wrote, “My life has been filled with terrible misfortune, most of which never happened.” A study showed that 85% of what we worry about never happens and of the 15% that actually does happen, 79% of that is said to be not as bad as expected. Those in the situation could handle it or learned something that was profitable for their life. Basically, you get down to 97% of stuff that either doesn’t happen or you can handle it, and 3% actually happens that overwhelms you.
Stop worrying and be encouraged in knowing that Jesus Christ can meet your needs. Your significance can be found in Him. The love that you desire, He already has for you. Jesus’ desire and message to you is to stop worrying about provision because our Heavenly Father provides all of your needs. Do you find your significance in Jesus? Do you find your love and respect in Him?
