Psalms 121:1-8 CEV (A song for worship.) I look to the hills! Where will I find help? 2. It will come from the LORD, who created the heavens and the earth. 3. The LORD is your protector, and he won't go to sleep or let you stumble. 4. The protector of Israel doesn't doze or ever get drowsy. 5. The LORD is your protector, there at your right side to shade you from the sun. 6. You won't be harmed by the sun during the day or by the moon at night. 7. The LORD will protect you and keep you safe from all dangers. 8. The LORD will protect you now and always wherever you go.
Matthew 6:25-34 CEV I tell you not to worry about your life. Don't worry about having something to eat, drink, or wear. Isn't life more than food or clothing? 26. Look at the birds in the sky! They don't plant or harvest. They don't even store grain in barns. Yet your Father in heaven takes care of them. Aren't you worth more than birds? 27. Can worry make you live longer? 28. Why worry about clothes? Look how the wild flowers grow. They don't work hard to make their clothes. 29. But I tell you that Solomon with all his wealth wasn't as well clothed as one of them. 30. God gives such beauty to everything that grows in the fields, even though it is here today and thrown into a fire tomorrow. He will surely do even more for you! Why do you have such little faith? 31. Don't worry and ask yourselves, "Will we have anything to eat? Will we have anything to drink? Will we have any clothes to wear?" 32. Only people who don't know God are always worrying about such things. Your Father in heaven knows that you need all of these. 33. But more than anything else, put God's work first and do what he wants. Then the other things will be yours as well. 34. Don't worry about tomorrow. It will take care of itself. You have enough to worry about today.
Hebrews 4:16 CEV So whenever we are in need, we should come bravely before the throne of our merciful God. There we will be treated with undeserved kindness, and we will find help.
