This week during staff worship we looked at the difficulties in serving two masters. Jesus shares in His sermon on the mount that serving two masters’ will lead to the potential of loving one and hating the other. He relates this to money, if we are a slave to money, it becomes impossible to prioritize living a life that Jesus would be proud of properly.

Jesus expands past just worrying about money. Jesus adds that we, as his children, have nothing to worry about. God clothes the lilies, and they look beautiful. Each day He feeds the sparrows and they’re never left wondering where their next meal will come from.

So why is it that we worry and riddle ourselves with anxiety?

God loves us, His children so much more than the lilies of the field so of course he’ll help clothe us, God loves us so much more than the sparrows so of course he’ll help feed us each day. Our little ones here at school, in comparison to how we advance through life, are relatively care-free. And that’s the faithful and trusting spirit that Christ encourages us to have also.

I pray that through your trials and celebrations, the highs and the lows, the wins and the losses, that you’ll keep God at the forefront of your minds. Remember that all good things come from Him and that He can help you through anything. Just as he’s there for the daily needs of the lilies, for the daily needs of the sparrows. God loves you and wants to be the answer to your every need.
