Matthew 6:27
Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?
Just as a man has no power to add to his height or physical presence, our Lord suggests we not add to our financial stature through human means. It is sure that a person may hedge himself toward a more prosperous future through education and through earnest pursuit. But that focus is not the most valuable one.
Our Lord says it would be better to pour ourselves into knowing the Lord and trust the Lord to care for us.
It is still a matter of the heart; where our treasure is, there will our heart be also.
My purpose in life is to be to follow after Christ. He will provide and care for me as I do that. He always has. I am confident He will continue to do the same.
