1 Peter 1: 24-25

Transcript

“For, “All flesh is like grass, And all its glory is like the flower of grass. The grass withers, And the flower falls off, But the word of the Lord endures forever.” And this is the word which was preached to you.”

1 Peter 1:24-25 NASB2020

We are here on earth for a millisecond. It’s a breath compared to eternity. Once again Peter is reminding us of the words of Jesus. Remember in the sermon on the Mount when Jesus extolled us not to worry about the things of the flesh; “Do not worry then, saying, ‘What are we to eat?’ or ‘What are we to drink?’ or ‘What are we to wear for clothing?’ For the Gentiles eagerly seek all these things; for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be provided to you. “So do not worry about tomorrow; for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.”

Matthew 6:31-34 NASB2020

God’s word is perfect, it removes all fear and anxiety. Trust in His perfect word, His enduring word and let those words heal your heart and remove your anxiety. Cast your cares upon him as he says; “Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is comfortable, and My burden is light.”

Matthew 11:29-30 NASB2020

Lord, we praise and honor your Holy and precious name. Thank you for your love and protection and for your perfect words. Help us to seek to serve you and trust in you. We lay our burdens down at your feet, knowing you will give us rest even in the midst of our storms. We pray this in Jesus name Amen. 

Shalom, Shalom blessings and Press in and Press on!
