"So don't worry about these things, saying, ‘What will we eat? What will we drink? What will we wear?' These things dominate the thoughts of unbelievers, but your heavenly Father already knows all your needs. Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and He will give you everything you need." - Matthew 6: 31-33

Jesus said to not worry about our everyday needs, like food, drink or clothing.

When our focus is on meeting our needs, or the demand that others meet our needs, we will build a vocabulary and a life of worry in response to our perceived lack. Jesus said that if we lived this way we would appear like unbelievers.

Belief cannot be limited to a set of doctrines and theologies about God. There is a deeper form of belief. This deeper understanding of belief will reveal what we understand or don't understand about God's love. Belief can be translated to mean "entrust." When we believe in God we are entrusting ourselves to Him.

What makes focusing on our needs so devastating is that it kills our potential to dream. If we continually worry about the provision of our basic needs, we will never move our focus beyond need into the realm of dreaming with God about those things that seem impossible in the natural that involve bearing fruit that remains for His Kingdom. Dreams die when our lives are consumed with the worry that comes from trying to live only within our human potential instead of God's supernatural provision.
