Reflections with Andy - Luke 12: 22-34 - What Does Worry Accomplish

Andy Stoddard

Today’s passage reminds us that God already knows what we need, so worrying won’t add anything to our lives—it only drains us. Jesus tells us not to get caught up chasing after food, clothing, or stuff that fades, but instead to seek the Kingdom, because that’s the real treasure. I’ll be honest, worry comes naturally to me—I tend to carry it for everyone—but Jesus’ words are clear: worry can’t fix a thing. What lasts is trusting God, living generously, and remembering it’s the Father’s good pleasure to give us the Kingdom.
