Do you ever find yourself worrying about the future? Jesus spoke about this in the Sermon on the Mount recorded in the Bible. He understood that we would be tempted to fear the unknown, so He used a beautiful illustration in nature to remind us that He cares deeply about each of us. Flowers are lovely; however, they do nothing to care for their food or beauty. Although flowers are beautiful, they have a short life; they wither and are gone. We are precious in the eyes of our Creator. As you enjoy the beautiful flowers on cool morning and evening walks this summer, may you be reminded of how much Jesus cares about you!
And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: and yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Matthew 6: 28-29
