Don’t Worry

The main point
the lesson of Christ:
“Don’t worry,
God will provide.”

Such a hard lesson
central to our struggle
to let go of our day to day
and to follow Jesus

The world tells us
to be self-sufficient
relying on our wit
our toils
we are all that we need

Christ tells us something different
that we should not worry
turning our cares over
to the provision of God

Only then are we able
to truly serve our master
going where we are called
to do the savior’s work
