TODAY’S READING
Matthew 6:25-34
Aren’t two sparrows sold for a small coin? But not one of them will fall to the ground without your Father knowing about it already. – Matthew 10:29 (CEB)
MESSAGE
As a young married couple, we had a tight budget. When an emergency home repair left us without grocery money, I was sick with worry. I sat on our farmhouse stoop and numbly watched our two young children play in the yard without a care. I tried to imagine how I could stretch the meager contents of our pantry to feed my family until the next payday, but I knew it wouldn’t be enough.
Suddenly a car turned in to our driveway, and the horn sounded. A woman got out and greeted me. She explained to me that years earlier the previous homeowner had let her pick scuppernong grapes on the property, and she asked if she could pick some again.
I had never seen this woman before, and I never saw her again. But after she had picked grapes, she gave me some money in thanks — more than enough to buy groceries. It felt like a miracle.
I have recalled this unexpected blessing many times over the years. Time and again the providence of God has taught me the power of replacing worry with trust. We all can hold on to joy even in uncertain circumstances.
TODAY’S PRAYER
Thank you, God, for all the ways you provide for our needs. Guide us to show your love to others in unexpected ways. Amen.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
Even when I feel hopeless, I will trust in God’s care for me.
PRAYER FOCUS
Those without enough food
