There is joy and blessedness in being permitted to witness in an age of doubt and unbelief to that precious faith committed unto us. 
The Rt Rev'd H.B. Whipple, Founder of The Church of the Good Shepherd, Maitland, Florida, 1881

Dearly Beloved in Christ,

We remember the disciples as giants of the faith - all except John were killed for their faith - but that was after the Resurrection, when their faith became unshakable, their trust unswerving.  But here at the beginning of their discipleship training Jesus calls them "you of little faith."  For Jesus there is a direct relationship between our worry meter and our faith meter - worrying about our day to day needs is indicative of a trust deficit.

If we place our trust primarily in money then that has taken the place of God - and money is much less trustworthy than God.  "Do not worry about your life ... Look at the birds of the air; they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?"  Are you not of more value than the birds of the air? 

Do you know of what value you are to God?  Not because of what you do or don't do, not because of what you say or don't say, not because of what you have or don't have - quite simply because you are his child you are of ultimate value to him.  You are beloved of God.  You are inscribed on the palms of his hands.  You are precious in his sight.  He would go to any lengths to show you just how much he loves you - and he did - he went to the cross - for you - for love of you.  You can take that love to the bank - it won't rust - it won't wear out - it will never fail - it's value will never fall - it is unchanging, unwavering, incorruptible, indissoluble - and it is eternal.

Since he loves you so much you can trust him - do not worry - he cares for you.

"Most loving Father, whose will it is for us to give thanks for all things, to fear nothing but the loss of you, and to cast all our care on you who cares for us: Preserve us from faithless fears and worldly anxieties, that no clouds of this mortal life may hide from us the light of that love which is immortal, and which you have manifested to us in your Son Jesus Christ our Lord; who lives and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever.  Amen."  BCP

In His Peace, Grace, and Love,
