When was the last time you worried about what you might eat -- because you really didn't have anything to eat? When was the last time you worried about having something to wear (because you had nothing to wear -- not because you simply didn't like what you had)? While we might not worry about these basics of life, there are so many other things that we could worry about! But, as we are reminded in Matthew 6:25-34, worry accomplishes nothing and is not appropriate for those whose faith is in Christ. May what Jesus taught in today's text encourage us to live with greater trust in Him! --Bruce

This week we come to the end of our journey through the Apostle Paul's letter to his fellow Christians living in the Macedonian city of Philippi -- part of the Roman Empire. Like the rest of God's word, what God has for us in this letter is profitable for teaching, reproof, correction and training in righteousness -- so that those of us who are believers and followers of Jesus might be equipped for every good work (2 Timothy 3:16-17). May we never think we have arrived but continue to want to be reminded of what God has told us so that we might, with His help & by His grace, become more and more the people He wants us to be! --Pastor Bruce
