Matthew 6:25 Therefore I say to you, Take no thought for your life, what you shall eat, or what you shall drink; nor yet for your body… 1. The Christian should live in quiet confidence in God. 2. This quiet dependence upon God is our happiness, usefulness, strength, security. 3. If this were wrought in our hearts as a principle, how energetic we should be in the exercise of faith in God. 4. The secret of getting through work is to take the work of the day and leave all that does not belong to it. 5. Although a man leaves all to God, and is happy in Christ, he is not therefore exempt from evil. (J. W. Reeve.) Parallel Verses KJV: Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment? |
