Jesus tells us not to worry. However, in today's world, life seems a little more complicated than in Jesus days, and most of us don't worry about food and clothing. So, what did fully have in mind when He tells us “not worry about what we will eat or wear?

The other day, when I was out on my walk and I noticed the birds, all different kinds of birds, chirping, eating stuff off the grass, and doing what birds do.

Therefore, Do Not Be Anxious!

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Feb 11, 2021

‘Do not be anxious.’ That’s what Jesus told his disciples. If only! we might think. Can we banish anxiety from our hearts simply because Jesus tells us to? We’re in a series in Luke, following Jesus and his disciples on their journey from Galilee down to Jerusalem. Their journey starts in Luke ...read more
