"Worry" about God and He will "worry" about you.

Matthew 6:33-34 KJV

[33 ] But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

[34} Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.


Child of God, do not constantly be thinking and caring about what you need and desire, and how to get those things. Instead, mostly think and care about what God desires and how to satisfy His desires. How to give Him glory and pleasure. How to obey God, all His commandments, all the time.


What about your own needs and desires? That is God's problem, God’s business, not yours. God does a better job of taking care of them than you ever could. You, of course, will be involved, but the results will be whatever God decides. And they will be good.


God often does not give you what you want, but much better.


Exodus 2:23B KJV

[23] the children of Israel sighed by reason of the bondage, and they cried, and their cry came up unto God by reason of the bondage.


The children of Israel wanted to be free, but God gave them much more than that. They also got silver, gold and clothes from the Egyptians.


Exodus 3:21-22 KJV

[21] And I will give this people favour in the sight of the Egyptians: and it shall come to pass, that, when ye go, ye shall not go empty:

[22] But every woman shall borrow of her neighbour, and of her that sojourneth in her house, jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and raiment: and ye shall put them upon your sons, and upon your daughters; and ye shall spoil the Egyptians.


You will experience many expressions of God's intense love for you. Little things, big things. But things unlikely to happen in the usual course of events.


An elder at a church we attended used to pray at the end of our mid-week assemblies, "Father, please give back to these people the time they have spent here." God did this for me in the following week many times. For example, things I had to do I no longer had to do. Things I expected to be difficult and long became easy and quick.
