God will never Abandon us


{This is a short reflection based on the gospel of Mathew Chp 6:24-34}



We are all simple human beings.It is natural for all of us to worry and be anxious about our future.At the time of Jesus,the apostles also looked at their future and were afraid.Jesus knew their fears and today He also knows our fears and consoles us with words such as these:

Do you think that God will leave you alone-a God who cares for the birds of the sky and the flowers of the field? Will He cease to care for you, who is so precious in His eyes?

Do not worry about being a "success" in my service. I have not called you to a career. I have called you to a way of life-the life of bringing God to the world you face each day.If you do that, I will take even your failures and make them successes.

Don't worry about the future. Stay with me in your every today and let the next tomorrow take care of itself.If today you are with me, I will take care of your future.

Jesus knows that inspite of all His promises and assurances, we will still worry and so He adds this line: Can any of you add a day to your life by worrying about it? (Mt 6:27)

True my dear friends, Jesus wants us to be free, not of concerns but of all worries,in order to serve Him.



Seek the kingdom of God first and all things shall be added unto you.....Mt 6:33.



God bless+
