still breathing 

My 7 year old picked the following from his devotional Bible for a morning reading.  He read it to me and it just blew me away.  God is cool.

 

25 "I tell you, do not worry. Don't worry about your life and what you will eat or drink. And don't worry about your body and what you will wear. Isn't there more to life than eating? Aren't there more important things for the body than clothes?

 26 "Look at the birds of the air. They don't plant or gather crops. They don't put away crops in storerooms. But your Father who is in heaven feeds them. Aren't you worth much more than they are?

 27 "Can you add even one hour to your life by worrying?

 28 "And why do you worry about clothes? See how the wild flowers grow. They don't work or make clothing. 29 But here is what I tell you. Not even Solomon in all of his glory was dressed like one of those flowers.

 30 "If that is how God dresses the wild grass, won't he dress you even better? After all, the grass is here only today. Tomorrow it is thrown into the fire. Your faith is so small!

 31 "So don't worry. Don't say, 'What will we eat?' Or, 'What will we drink?' Or, 'What will we wear?' 32 People who are ungodly run after all of those things. Your Father who is in heaven knows that you need them.

 33 "But put God's kingdom first. Do what he wants you to do. Then all of those things will also be given to you.

 34 "So don't worry about tomorrow. Tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
