Something I need to remember

25."Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? 26.Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27.Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life ? 28."And why do you worry about clothes? See how the lilies of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. 29.Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. 30.If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? 31.So do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?' 32.For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. 33.But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. 34.Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
MT 6:25-34

No Shirt, No Shoes, No Service

Jonathan was working for Aunt Jo on Sunday so it was just me and Jonas getting ready for church. i thought we were doing REALLY well. we were actually seated before Travis started singing! However, when i was getting Jonas out of his car seat it was raining and i put him on the ground to walk in, and he said "Mommy, my feet are getting wet", i turned and said "honey, why are you feet.....oh dear" i had forgotten to put shoes on the child! i am so proud of myself for going on into church. several months ago , i probably would have just turned around and gone home
