If the God of earth and heaven cares for flowers as much as this, won’t he care much more for you, when you put your trust in him? 3 What God wants should be our will; where God calls should be our goal. When we seek the kingdom first, all we’ve lost is ours again. Let’s be done with anxious thoughts, set aside tomorrow’s cares, live each day that God provides, putting all our trust in him. Scripture: Matthew 6:25-34 Languages: English Tune Title: [Look and learn from the birds of the air]
