A Sound, Disciplined Mind-Mrs Nancy Dufresne

31 Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? 32 (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. 33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. 34 Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof. Jesus is telling us not to worry about the daily necessities of food or clothing. If God doesn’t want us to worry about the smallest details of the daily necessities of life, how much more He doesn’t want us to worry about life’s bigger needs. In verse 27 the question is asked, “Which of you by taking thought can add….” To “take thought” is to worry. Things aren’t added to your life through worry. Worry only subtracts – it never adds anything to your life. Verse 31 reads, “Therefore take no thought, saying… .” How do you take thoughts of worry? Through saying. Don’t say thoughts of worry. Verse 31 continues to read, “Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?” Notice that three questions are asked in this verse. This verse is warning us not to get into worry by asking a lot of questions: Why is this happening? What are we going to do? Where’s the money going to come from?
