The Birds of the Air

We're moving back to America.

We do not have a job waiting for us.

We do not have an apartment.

We do not have a car.

Even though we won't have jobs yet, we will still have bills.

We don't even know many people in Texas.

We have to save enough money while we are still working here, to last us until we have an income in the States.

Yikes.  All of this kind of hit me today.

Then God reminded of something.

Matthew 6:25-34

    ²⁵ “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? 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? ²⁷ Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life^[a]?   ²⁸ “And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. ²⁹ Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. ³⁰ If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you—you of little faith? ³¹ So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ ³² For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. ³³ But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. ³⁴ Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.

God has called us to Texas.  (If you want the story, we'll tell you sometime, but I don't think I'm going to post it on the blog)

Because we are His and we are following after Him, He is not going to let us go hungry or homeless.  He will and does provide everything we need.

He has already given us a place to stay until Michael gets a job and we move to Texas.

He has also provided a vehicle for us to use until we move.

What am I worrying about??

He'll take care of the rest too.
