What's on your mind- really?

Ever feel uneasy about your life's direction? Ever wonder what's gonna happen next, or why things keep going wrong ... or whether some overlooked, uncrossed t is gonna show up without an invitation and absolutely ruin your whole week?

Or is worrying about Me ... the un-dotted, unfulfilled i ... an irritation constantly festering in the emotional background?


If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? So do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?'

For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them.
- Matthew 6-30-32

Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance.
- James 1:2-3

Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy, for you are receiving the goal of your faith, the salvation of your souls.
- 1 Peter 1:8-9
