I have been reading a revised version of the New Norwegian Bible the last few days. It is always refreshing to read new translations of the Bible and this one is no exception.
This morning I was reading in the twelfth chapter where Jesus is telling the disciples not to worry. Worrying for what to eat or drink is something the heathens do all over the world, he says. But we are not to worry, for our Father knows what we need. As long as we seek his Kingdom, our Father will add everything to us! We are not to be afraid or worry for anything, for it is the great joy of the Father to give us his Kingdom!
Therefore we can live a life of generous giving, storing up treasures in heaven. What a wonderful way to live! A worry-free life of generous giving!
