Life seems kind of hard right now. There are plenty of things to think about that might get you down. Gas prices are setting records everyday, the cost of food is right behind it and some people are losing their jobs and homes.

In the midst of everything that is happening around us I can say that life is good.

Here is a hearty chunk of scripture for you.

Matthew 6:25-34

5 “For this reason I say to you, do not be worried about your life, as to what you will eat or what you will drink; nor for your body, as to what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? 26 “Look at the birds of the air, that they do not sow, nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not worth much more than they? 27 “And who of you by being worried can add a single hour to his life? 28 “And why are you worried about clothing? Observe how the lilies of the field grow; they do not toil nor do they spin, 29 yet I say to you that not even Solomon in all his glory clothed himself like one of these. 30 “But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which is alive today and tomorrow is thrown into the furnace, will He not much more clothe you? You of little faith! 31 “Do not worry then, saying, `What will we eat?’ or `What will we drink?’ or `What will we wear for clothing?’ 32 “For the Gentiles eagerly seek all these things; for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. 33 “But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. 34 “So do not worry about tomorrow; for tomorrow will care for itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.

How great is our God? How great is His love towards us?

I challenge myself to always say,

“I’m not worried about anything I a because trusting in God and I know that He will take care of me.”

If God takes care of the birds for doing nothing, how much more do you think He will take care of one of His children?

The world may be in a crazy state around us but realize that as long as you put your faith in God, He will give you the ability and resources to live the good life.

I AM GOING TO LIVE THE GOOD LIFE FROM HERE ON OUT!
