  • Worry collects treasures, and treasures produce more worries.
  • The chains which bind us to earthly goods, the clutches which hold the goods tight, are themselves worries.
  • Only those who put tomorrow completely into God’s hand and receive fully today what they need for their lives are really secure. Receiving daily liberates me from tomorrow.
  • But strive first for the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. So do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring worries of its own. Today’s trouble is enough for today. Matthew 6:33-34
  • How can we tell the difference between what we really “need” for our lives and what we think we need but really only want? Can we be content with what we really need?
  • How precious is your steadfast love, 0 God! All people may take refuge in the shadow of your wings. They feast on the abundance of your house, and you give them drink from the river of your delights. For with you is the fountain of life; in your light we see light. Psalm 36:7-9
