Don’t fuss
If you decide for God, living a life of God-worship, it follows that you don’t fuss about what’s on the table at mealtimes or whether the clothes in your closet are in fashion. There is far more to your life than the food you put in your stomach, more to your outer appearance than the clothes you hang on your body. Look at the birds, free and unfettered, not tied down to a job description, careless in the care of God. And you count far more to him than birds.
Matthew 6:25
Most people spend far too much time fussing over what to wear or what to eat…worrying, even. Don’t fuss, don’t worry – God takes care of the birds and He’ll take care of you and provide for you even more so than he does for the birds. So the next time you see a bird be reminded, be free, don’t fuss, God is there watching over you, just as He watches over the birds.

God wants to take care of those things so we can take care of the things He’s interested in.
