Matthew 6:25-26 Therefore I tell you, stop being perpetually uneasy (anxious and worried) about your life, what you shall eat or what you shall drink; or about your body, what you shall put on. Is not life greater [in quality] than food, and the body [far above and more excellent] than clothing? 26 Look at the birds of the air; they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father keeps feeding them. Are you not worth much more than they? (AMP)
Easy to read. Hard to live. We want to be in control and when it comes to life, death, and health, we really have little control. Yet, we spend a great deal of time trying to modify those things we have little control over. Listen next time you ask for prayer requests - 95% of them deal with health issues. We are encouraged to trust God and control those things we CAN control - our actions, decisions, attitudes, etc.
