Life Beyond Material

Join me, Alison Elizabeth as we read over Matthew 6:25-26 which says "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?"

"...Look at the birds. They do not sow or reap, yet God feeds them. Meaning they are not working, planting seeds, and waiting for a harvest yet they are always fed. 

I know we are all working. We are dreaming of the home we want to purchase or the apartment overlooking the city. We all have our dream car, or dream wardrobe. We want financial freedom and we want to enjoy this life by traveling. Today you are going to go to work and you are going to work hard to bring home a paycheck to buy food and pay for the roof over your head. 

But this verse is a friendly reminder that life is so much more than this. Is not life more than food and the clothes you wear? 

Life is about loving and serving one another. It's what yesterday's prayer was. I know anxiety can hit at any moment. You might not know when your next paycheck will come. Maybe you've been furloughed and you don't know when you will be asked to return to work. This verse serves as a reminder that God has you in the palm of his hand..."
