This is just something I found on tumblr. I am only 19 and haven't really decided yet what I actually believe in (or whether I am religious at all), but nonetheless I find this really comforting.. That's why I thought I should show you

Have a nice evening!

Thank you so much for posting this. I think I will print it and stick it in my Bible. God bless!

A pastor I know and respect told me that Jesus's most frequently made injunction is (essentially) "don't worry."

To atone for the sin of paraphrasing, here is a particularly beautiful example (and one of my personal favorites) from the gospel of Matthew, in the rolling thunder of the King James translation:
Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:

And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
