Kate Millest | 3 Gifts To Free Your Heart From Worry | 9 September | St Peter's Brighton

If your eyes are healthy, your whole body will be full of light.

But if your eyes are unhealthy, your whole body will be full of darkness.

If then the light within you is darkness, how great is that darkness? No one can serve two masters.

Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you'll be devoted to one and despise the other.

You cannot serve both God and money.

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?

And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow.

They do not labor or spin, yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all of his splendor was dressed like one of these.

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? So do not worry, saying, what shall we eat? What shall we drink? What shall we wear? For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them.

But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.

Therefore, do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself.

Each day has enough trouble of its own.

Amen.
