So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’

—Matthew 6:31 NIV

It’s easy to get worked up about what might happen in the future: Will I have enough money to retire? Will I become ill? Yet all you need to do is ask for what you need today. As Jesus pointed out in Matthew, “Your Father knows what you need before you ask him” (Matthew 6:8). Trust God with your needs today, this day. That is enough.
