Therefore I say unto you, Take no
thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for
your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body
than raiment? Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they
reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not
much better than they? Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto
his stature? Matthew 6:25-27 KJV

A lot of
damages have been done to the human body and lives generally because we always
try to figure out our lives by ourselves. People have died prematurely due to
heart attacks and high blood pressure. Worst case scenario people had
terminated that God given life in them by committing suicide. I read a gory
story of a man who emptied a gallon of gasoline on himself and set himself
ablaze, because he could neither afford tuition fees of his kids nor give his
dead mum a proper burial. What terrible price men pay when they ignore the word
of God.
If we are going to spend the
remainder of our days on earth in health, peace and joy, we must listen to just
what God says. To enjoy the full benefit of a product, it is advisable you
adhere to the manufacturer’s instruction. We must adhere to the instructions of
our creator because He designed us and is fully aware of our potentials; else
we’ll malfunction and self-destruct. We were commanded not admonished, to take no
thought or worry about the basic needs of life. How much more other complicated
circumstances? If we are not to worry or think about how we’ll thrive, who does
the thinking then? Isn’t it obvious yet that God does? Jeremiah 29:11.
Do your kids
worry about what to eat and wear? No, they have you for that. They only ask you to supply the request to
their needs.
Allowing God
be your Think-Tank will rescue you from many sleepless nights. Do not attempt
to do God’s job because you’ll wear out in no time. It’s not in the job
description of man to worry about the affairs of his life, his marriage, unemployment,
health etc. Quit figuring things out, start giving it to God and you’ll get
results. Two drivers cannot steer the wheel of a car at the same time. Let it
go and God would latch unto it. Make sure you are giving up all your worries
and thoughts to God daily because your health and life span depends on it.
