God provides for His own.
It is pointless to get up early,
work hard, and go to bed late
Anxiously laboring for food to eat;
for God provides for those He loves,
even while they are sleeping.
Psalm 127:2 The Voice
**********
God sees you not only as a mortal being
on a small planet who lives for a brief season –
He sees you as His child.
He sees you as the being you are capable and designed to become.
He wants you to know that you matter to Him.”
Dieter F. Uchtdorf

Tell those who worry, the anxious and fearful,
“Take strength; have courage! There’s nothing to fear.
Look, here—your God! Right here is your God!
The balance is shifting; God will right all wrongs.
None other than God will give you success.
He is coming to make you safe.”
Isaiah 35:4 The Voice

“The central basis of Christian assurance is not
how much our hearts are set on God,
but how unshakably his heart is set on us.”
Timothy Keller

Go in confidence and grace—no rushing, no frantic escape.
There’s no need to be anxious—the Eternal One goes before and behind you.
The God of Israel paves the way with assurance and strength.
He watches your back.
Isaiah 52:12 The Voice
**********
When I’m worried,
it’s usually because I’m trying to do everything myself.
When I’m at peace,
it’s usually because I remember that God is in control.
Dave Willis

Don’t be anxious about things; instead, pray.
Pray about everything.
He longs to hear your requests,
so talk to God about your needs and be thankful for what has come.
Philippians 4:6 The Voice

Jesus came to do something incredibly special for us.
He came to make sure we knew our worth, our value to God.
