Matthew 6:25-27 “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 more than food, and the body more than clothes? 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? Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life ?
As Jesus was addressing one of his mega crusades on a mountain side ,He gave a profound revelation of how to deal with issues of life that concern everyone on daily basis. He told them to watch the birds of the air and learn from them.
Every time the issues of life crop up ,we think that by worrying so much we will extend our shelf life .Have you ever seen a bird with wrinkles as a result of pressures and issues of life? They are always exposed to dangers as we are, not sure of getting something to eat . Sometimes they rise only to find a Powersaw or an axe bringing down their shelters!
Despite of all that befall on them,we are told to learn from them for they don’t go about heads down or holding their chins.The ultimate bird watcher provides for their every need.
We are more valuable than them! why stay up worrying all night and call it serious thinking?Worry should only remind us to look beyond the hopeless situation .
As we rise early like the birds ,we ought to give the best we can and leave worry to the bird’s watcher- our heavenly Father.
