Anxiety & Peace
Day 3 · Anxiety & Peace
Consider the Birds
“Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?”Matthew 6:25-27
Reflection
Jesus does not shame the anxious; He redirects their gaze. Worry shrinks the world to the size of our fear. He lifts our eyes to the ordinary providence all around us and reasons gently: if God tends sparrows, He tends you.
A prayer
Jesus, lift my eyes from the size of my fear to the size of my Father's care. Teach me from the birds and the lilies that I am seen, valued, and provided for. Amen.
