Matthew 6:28-31
28 "And why do you worry about clothes? See how the lilies of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. 29 Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. 30 If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? 31 So do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?”-NIV

Well, once again my spouse and I had a “discussion” about money issues. We have been going through a “desert” time for over a year now. Today’s discussion was due to a cut in our food budget which because of our situation has to cover two households. I allowed fear to rise up and make me concerned about how we were going to stretch this food allowance.

Later as I was studying and spending time in God’s word, I was reminded of this verse.
I saw how time and time again God provided for His people regardless of their situations. It was like God was asking me these questions and saying to me, “are you allowing doubt to try to come between us?” After all for over a year now God has made the money stretch, we haven’t missed a meal, and we have been blessed continually.

We all need to hold onto the promises God has given to His children. The next time you are facing a stack of bills, wondering how to buy clothes, or where the next meal is coming from. Stop! Take a deep breathe and ask Dad for a hand. He will be faithful to fulfill His promises!
