Do Not Worry About Your Life, What You Will Eat

📝Reflection

Worry drags tomorrow's problem into today, so we suffer it twice — once in imagination, once when it actually arrives. This verse does not ask for reckless optimism. It asks only that we not lose the life right here, sick with a future that has not yet come. Life is more than food, the body more than clothing. The trap of worry is spending all our attention on the small thing while the large thing waits unattended.
