Matthew
6:25-34 KJV
25
Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye
shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye
shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than
raiment?
26
Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap,
nor gather into barns; yet your Heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye
not much better than they?
27
Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?
28
And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the
field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:
29
And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not
arrayed like one of these.
30
Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is,
and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall He not much more clothe
you, O ye of little faith?
31
Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall
we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?
32
(For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your Heavenly
Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.
33
But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness; and all
these things shall be added unto you.
34
Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take
thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil
thereof.
John
3:16 KJV
For
God so loved the world, that He gave His Only Begotten Son, that
whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting
Life.
John
10:14,15 KJV
14 I
am The Good Shepherd, and know My sheep, and am known of Mine.
15
As The Father knoweth Me, even so know I The Father: and I lay down
My Life for the sheep.
Ephesians
5:25 KJV
"...Christ...loved
the church, and gave Himself for it;
Philippians
4:6,7 NLT
6
Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell
God what you need, and thank Him for all He has done.
7
Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can
understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in
Christ Jesus.
I
Peter 5:7 KJV
Casting
all your care upon Him; for he careth for you.
God
Will Take Care Of You
Be not dismayed whate’er betide,
God will take care of you;
Beneath His wings of love abide,
God will take care of you.
Chorus:
God will take care of you,
Through every day, o’er all the way;
He will take care of you,
God will take care of you.
Through days of toil when heart doth fail,
God will take care of you;
When dangers fierce your path assail,
God will take care of you.
All you may need He will provide,
God will take care of you;
Nothing you ask will be denied,
God will take care of you.
No matter what may be the test,
God will take care of you;
Lean, weary one, upon His breast,
God will take care of you.
